PCMark 8’s Standard Storage test saves a large amount of performance data. The default test runs through the test suite of 10 applications three times. Here we show the total bandwidth performance for each of the individual test suites for the third and final benchmark run.

The KC2500 handles PCMark 8's Standard Storage test without any problems and posts some impressive bandwidth figures along the way, including over 1GB/s for both Adobe Photoshop traces.

The KC2500 actually performs a little worse in the complete Storage Test than the Kingston KC2000, trailing the earlier drive by some 22MB/s.
