Micron C400 mSATA (128GB) SSD Review
by Anand Lal Shimpi on April 10, 2012 8:00 AM ESTAnandTech Storage Bench 2011 - Light Workload
Our new light workload actually has more write operations than read operations. The split is as follows: 372,630 reads and 459,709 writes. The relatively close read/write ratio does better mimic a typical light workload (although even lighter workloads would be far more read centric).
The I/O breakdown is similar to the heavy workload at small IOs, however you'll notice that there are far fewer large IO transfers:

Is conclusion page missing? or it is not present intentionally. Replybobsmith1492 - Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - link
Same as the last article... this one is just a refresher so all the conclusions are on the first page and the rest are just backup data. ReplyImSpartacus - Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - link
That's a neat way of doing it.I hope Anandtech can still do in-depth looks at important products, but this format is a happy medium for less important products that still deserve a review. Reply

I agree. I like the format. They could probably tell from access logs that a lot of readers do what I do: read the first page (introduction), then read the last page (conclusion), skipping everything in between. It makes life easier, even if costs you a page of ad impressions. ReplyLancerVI - Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - link
....and that's the truth of it. I agree! Replyjohan851 - Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - link
I like the layout also. Though you'll get less ad revenue when I skip the rest of the pages. ;) ReplyAssBall - Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - link
I agree and hope to see some of the mobo reviews follow suit, after the nice and complete initial chipset analysis reviews you don't really need a full blown review, just the basics. ReplyCaioRearte - Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - link
I don't think so. When you're reading something that's interesting, I think you tend to check out the ads more than when you're just scrolling down pages of benchmarks. Replyleexgx - Thursday, April 12, 2012 - link
i only use the Print page button (do not print it) as it makes all the pages onto one page (wish other sites would do it) so its only 1 page changei prefer to have one full page that's just me Reply
