(As of January 1, 2010) To test all Hard Drives, SSDs, Hard Drive Enclosures and Hard Drive Docks, Hi Tech Legion will use its suite of popular diagnostic benchmarks. In most benchmarks "Higher is Better" unless otherwise stated. Benchmarks will include HD Tune, Crystal Mark, AIDA64 (Disk Benchmark) and ATTO. The benchmarks used are easily accessible to the general public. Depending on the drive tested, benchmarks may or may not reflect comparisons to other drives. Hi Tech Legion will also try to provide comparisons in seconds on applications and games. (Initialization Times, when specified). For External Hard Drives, Enclosures and Docks, file transfer times will be benchmarked. Both test SSDs will be plugged into Intel AHCI SATA 6Gb/s port for the test.
