PCPer File Copy Test
Our custom PCPer-FC test does some fairly simple file creation and copy routines in order to test the storage system for speed. The script creates a set of files of varying sizes, times the creation process, then copies the same files to another partition on the same hard drive and times the copy process as well. There are four file patterns that we used to try and find any strong or weak points in the hardware: 10 files @ 1000 MB each, 100 files @ 100 MB each, 500 files @ 10 MB each and 1000 files at 1 MB each.
Here we can see the remarkable similarities in the top four (all Barefoot 3) SSDs. The competition eeks out a tad faster on maximum write speeds, which shows on some of the file creation tests.
Nice article. The product?
Nice article. The product? Yawn-stretch.
The thoughts under the IO
The thoughts under the IO graph are from previous article… Does nobody read these? 😉
It’s similar to the last
It's similar to the last Barefoot piece, but I am also talking about the R7 results in this piece (there were 4x Barefoot 3 SSDs in this review).
