OCZ RevoDrive 3 X2; the fastest drive by a long shot
While many people have yet to upgrade to a regular Solid State Storage drive, there are professional users who demand even more performance. For this high end audience, OCZ have specially crafted the RevoDrive 3 x2, which is said to be the fastest consumer drive by a considerable margin. Gone are the limitations of the SATA 3 interface thanks to the PCI-Express interface. OCZ claim a speed of 1.5GB/s read and 1.25GB/s write with a throughput specification of up to 200,000 IOPS @ 4k random write. Yes, that isnt a misprint. we are talking 1GB/s+ performance, and then some.
The graph says it all, between two and three times the performance of the closest Sandforce drive.
AS SSD uses incompressible data so the results are lower than some of the other tests today. Regardless, the Revodrive 3 x2 shows huge performance gains when compared with the regular SATA 3 Sandforce powered drives. The results are particularly strong in the 4k and 4k-64Thrd tests, around twice the performance of the 240gb MAX IOPS drive.
Iometer performance almost met the target of 200,000 IOPS, reaching 198,928. We did see a few peaks over 200,000 but it averaged out a little lower. Still, staggering results overall.
Kitguru quote:
To say that the OCZ RevoDrive 3 x2 480GB is fast would be the understatement of the year. It is easily the fastest drive we have tested, by a long shot. Obviously, the price means that it will be targeting a very small audience gamers with large salaries and enthusiast users who want the fastest possible performance for video editing and streaming data. It is clearly not only built for the rich enthusiast, but for the professional sector.
