Intel Solid State Drive DC S3500 Data Center SSD
AS-SSD Compression Test
Next up we ran the Compression Benchmark built-into AS SSD, an SSD specific benchmark being developed by Alex Intelligent Software. This test is interesting because it uses a mix of compressible and incompressible data and outputs both Read and Write throughput of the drive. We only graphed a small fraction of the data (1% compressible, 50% compressible, and 100% compressible), but the trend is representative of the benchmark’s complete results.

The Intel SSD DC S3500's performance isn't affected by the compressibility of the data being transferred on the drive, unlike the LSI SandForce-based drives shown here (the OCZ Vertex 3 and Intel 520). Performance was competitive with the SSD DC S3700, throughout.
