Intel 520 Series 240GB Review

Testing:

Crystal Disk Mark 3.0: Crystal Disk Mark is a hard drive benchmark designed to measure the read and write speeds of drives by using 4k blocks, 512k blocks, and sequential data. For the test, we chose the 1000MB option.

The Intel drive again performs right alongside the level of the rest of the Sandforce based drives. With a Que depth of 32 the Intel drive leads the pack in read and write performance.
