The Intel SSD 330 Review (60GB, 120GB, 180GB)
by Anand Lal Shimpi on August 1, 2012 12:01 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:
| AnandTech Storage Bench 2011 - Light Workload IO Breakdown | ||||
| IO Size | % of Total | |||
| 4KB | 27% | |||
| 16KB | 8% | |||
| 32KB | 6% | |||
| 64KB | 5% | |||
The 330's performance in our lighter workload is similarly middle of the road.

After sending a link to this article to my friend and quoting a sentence (we both follow Intel SSDs, and I bought a 710 300GB based on AnandTech's excellent review), I noticed that AnandTech has begun using the JavaScript thing that infects copied text with "read more at". (As explained at http://daringfireball.net/2010/05/tynt_copy_paste_... , although the "service" provider may be different here.)I am *extremely* disappointed to see AnandTech tarnishing its image with this nonsense.

Here's the culprit:<script src='http://i.po.st/share/script/post-widget.js#publish... type='text/javascript'></script>

Good thing it doesn't work on my browser. :)Flying Goat - Wednesday, August 1, 2012 - link
While it uses compiled Javascript, and I'm too lazy to reformat it, http://i.po.st/static/script/post-copypaste.js is presumably the issue (And blocking that domain gets rid of the problem).This is included directly in the source of the article page ("script src='http://i.po.st/share/script/post-widget.js#publish... type='text/javascript'").

Fixed, our content sharing partner (po.st) enabled this by default in their latest update. We've stripped it out.Take care,
Anand

And this is why I continue reading Anandtech. You guys are really in tune with your audience and you don't like to annoy us. Thanks for staying awesome!ImSpartacus - Wednesday, August 1, 2012 - link
I know. I'm such a fanboy. I don't think I'll ever find a site as awesome as Anandtech.STL - Wednesday, August 1, 2012 - link
Wow, thanks!
