AnandTech 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:

Our light workload remains Samsung's safe haven with the 840 Pro. OCZ's Vector does improve performance considerably over the Vertex 4 (+25%) but Samsung manages a 16% performance advantage here with the 840 Pro.

    My first Vector 256GB died aftef 6 months. Now the RMA they sent died after 2 months. Going for the third. No wonder they went bankrupt!
