File Compression & Encryption:

Website: WinRAR

We used the Intel X25-M SSD to provide a uniform performance base between all the boards tested in file compression and decompression.



File encoding, also poor, with a notable blip at the base where the DFI takes a few seconds longer than the average gentle trend down the board.

File Decompression & Decryption:

The two RAR archives created during the compression and encryption tests were then decompressed and decrypted.



In decompression tests where the SATA performance takes more of a prominent role the performance is much better for DFI, keeping in line with the rest of the pack.
