is featuring the Intel SSD 510 series SSD anyway I ran some PC Mark Vantage benchmarks on these particular ssds I actually ran them with an Intel p67 motherboard so I've got a few different configurations to show you first of all I ran single drive on the SATA 36 gbit per second controller as well as on the SATA 2 3 GB per second controller and the objective of that was to demonstrate how much of a performance Advantage you get by pairing this SSD up with a proper SATA 3 6 GB per second controller versus running it on an older Legacy SATA 2 controller I also ran the two Drives together in raid zero again in both configurations so on both different speed controllers to see what kind of a performance benefit we get from jumping from one SSD to two ssds uh just as a point of comparison I compare the onboard raid against an LSi 926 8i raid card um which I believe is configured optimally but I'm not actually an expert at configuring The Raid bio so I'm sure as the community plays around with these more they will find ways to eek more performance out of it and also for context I've compared these two ssds against an ocz Revo Drive X2 to 40 gig so that's going to show us what four sand Force drives so that is 4 60 gig sand Force drives essentially in raid zero will be able B to do against these all right so you can come in close here and have a look but basically I'll we'll go we'll go from by column so the First Column here is our single drive performance and you can see that we actually gain 30% performance going from a SATA 2 3 GB per second connection to a SATA 3 6 GB per second connection now when we actually go down to the hard drive Suite results we can see which applications are really making use of this extra bandwidth so there's certain things that actually don't get nearly as much benefit as others so when you're talking small files okay so such as adding music to Windows Media Player you're not going to see as huge a performance benefit as when you look at much bigger files like say for example video editing using Windows Movie Maker so basically the larger the files are and the more sequentially we're reading from them or writing to them the more benefit we're going to get from that wider interface so as we move over here I'm just going to bring these back up to show you guys the total scores as we move over we find our raid zero results so you can see that on the SATA 2 connection we actually get more benefit from raid Zero versus on the SATA 3 Connection and I guess the reason for that would be that what we're doing when we add raid zero is we are doubling the amount of bandwidth available although we're doubling the number of drives so certain things are going to be less bottlenecked and certain things are going to be equally bottlenecked so let's have a look at where the SATA 3 6 GB per second interface is really able to pull away from the slower interface and there aren't as many huge examples of that but you look at video editing again so that's where you're looking at a huge performance benefit from The Wider interface okay Vista startup once again gets a lot of benefit actually I'm going to scroll down over here and let's see how much Vista start up yeah so that one actually didn't improve much from the sing Drive configuration H interesting okay so let's move over let's have a look at our raid Card results so here we can see that it actually doesn't score as high as the onboard raid okay but some of the results here are actually better so you can see here Windows Defender actually performed significantly better than the onboard raid we're talking on the order of about 15% better so the reason for that I would spe calculate based on the crystal dis Mark results that we saw before is that the onboard the onboard RAID controller doesn't perform as well as the dedicated RAID controller in random reads and writes gaming once again the dedicated RAID controller absolutely blows away the onboard in fact many of these results are significantly better than the onboard raid the only reason that we're seeing this low overall score seems to be that Windows Media Center doesn't perform nearly as well on the dedicated raid card so that's something to bear in mind when you're looking at the overall results where you see the onboard raid just destroying well you know hundreds of dollars dedicated RAID controller so let's move on down here to the revo Drive X2 once again we see a very low overall score but as we move down and try it here you know what I'm going to move this one next to it or above it so that we can have an easier point of comparison so this is the revo Drive X2 this is 2 510s on the board RAID controller because that's sort of the configuration I'd consider most likely we see that there oh okay that won't fly okay we see that the revo Drive X2 actually does outperform the Dual 510s in some applications but there are others where it just gets demolished such as the video editing uh Benchmark where yeah there's absolutely no comparison but you look at some things like application loading as well as the antivirus test and it actually outper performs it so that probably again also reflects the better performance that the revo Drive X2 has in random uh heavy usage scenarios versus the Dual Drive config so thank you for checking out my PC Mark comparison uh of the Intel SSD 510 against itself on a SATA 2 versus a SATA 3 interface as well as a couple other points of reference for us don't forget to subscribe to Linus Tech tips for more
