Benchmarks: PCMark7 & PCMark 8

The Intel SSD 750 Serial and Samsung SM951 dominated the PCMark 7 importing pictures test as both just managed to break 410MB/south. The G.Skill Phoenix Blade PCIe just got on the podium with 282MB/south followed past the Kingston Predator with 214MB/s.

The fastest of the SATA SSDs delivered betwixt 140-155MB/s and this included the Samsung SSD 850 Pro, Samsung SSD 850 Evo, OCZ Vector 180 and Crucial MX200.

Looking between 120-130MB/s we find the Transcend SSD370, SanDisk Extreme Pro and Kingston HyperX Savage.

The Samsung SM951 raced ahead in the video editing test reaching 568MB/s while the Intel SSD 750 Series fell well behind losing to the Samsung SSD 850 Pro and Plextor PX-G512M6e.

The Intel SSD 750 Series tried to get out in forepart in the starting applications test but was ultimately beaten past the Samsung SM951. Meanwhile, the Samsung SSD 850 Pro squared up with the G.Skill Phoenix Blade and Kingston Predator.

The terminal PCMark 7 storage benchmark we're going to expect at is the gaming test, for which the SM951 submitted 226MB/s while the Intel SSD 750 Series was merely able to match the Samsung SSD 850 Pro with 164MB/s.

The PCMark 8 storage bandwidth test favored the Samsung SM951 over the Intel SSD 750 Series by a 7% margin while the SSD 750 Series was 48% faster than the Kingston Predator PCIe SSD and Plextor PX-G512M6e.

Samsung'southward SSD 850 Pro delivered 287MB/s -- slower than both the Crucial MX200 and SSD 850 Evo by a small margin.

The Battlefield 3 criterion shows simply how little impact high-speed SSDs can have on gaming. The Samsung SM951 was simply 3 seconds faster than the slowest SSD tested in a exam that took at least 131 seconds.

The Adobe Photoshop heavy test was also quite uneventful equally there was just ix seconds separating the slowest SSD from the fastest in a exam that took a little over 350 seconds.

Lastly we take the Microsoft Word test and here just half a second separates the fastest SSD from the slowest, so enough said really.
