Physical Disks

In HD Tach, the OCZ Agility had the lowest average read and burst speed results out of the 128GB drives I have tested. However, it is still well ahead of the mechanical drives. The access times and CPU usage are comparable. The Sandra Physical Disk testing shows the OCZ Agility with the highest drive index performance with comparable access times.
