Silicon-Power A80 Armor: Performance Test

Let's go on to analyze Silicon-Power product performance connecting it to USB 3.0 interface on our board.For the analysis of the performance benchmarks we used different software in order to measure the actual performance of the Hard Drive:

HDTune PRO

The values ​​obtained for the benchmarks in both reading and writing demonstrate good internal disk drive performance, stood at 75 MB/s. Very good write access time which is very low and equal to 6.67ms. If we take this data and compare it with 3.5" hard drives data it will result very performing and not very common in 2.5" disks.

ATTO

In this benchmark we can check performance with various types of blocks, in this case we see perfectly aligned performance with other benchmarks.

HDTACH

This software even if a bit dated allows us to check the progress of performance over the entire surface of the disk.

The results obtained are consistent with those of the other benchmarks, in fact resulting in an average of 78.6 MB/s and an Access Time of 16.1ms they are scarcely different from the results of HDTune PRO.

Crystal Disk Mark

With this test we have tested the Hard Drive in various ways. The results obtained in both reading and writing are very interesting and often superior to more famous disks.

AIDA 64

The last test we performed uses the AIDA software. We selected the RANDOM READ test. The results do not differ from other tests performed previously, AIDA gives us further confirmation of the good overall performance of the disc that totals an average reading of 75.7 MB/s.
