80 Percent Random Read Mixed Workload

The initial low random performance carries over to mixed workload random performance as well. Here, we see the SX930 drives isolated at the bottom of the chart, joined by an Intel SSD 530 that uses a SF-2281 controller. This test uses 100 percent entropy (incompressible data), so it's the worst-case scenario for a SandForce processor. That's the level of random performance you can expect from Adata's SX930.
