Kingston HyperX 3K 120GB SSD Review

IOMeter is another open source synthetic benchmarking tool which is able to simulate the various loads placed on hard drive and solid state drive technology.

We use a custom Kitguru configuration for 4k random write to measure performance. We use the same test, but for random read performance also.

IOPS performance is strong, for a Sandforce 2281 powered drive. 4k random write performance rated at 41,335, with 4k random read dropping to 25,082 IOPS. Strong all round results and in the top 10% of 120GB Sandforce powered drives we have tested to date.
