SATA Performance

Website: ATTO Disk Benchmark

We tested the SATA and performance with a Crucial RealSSD C300 256GB as this is the fastest SSD that we've tested (apart from the OCZ Vertex 3, but that hasn't been released yet), and it can test the speed of both SATA 3Gbps and SATA 6Gbps ports.

We use ATTO Disk Benchmark, and take the read and write speeds for 1,024KB data chunks.
