Average Access Read & Write Time

The average read/write response time is measured in a 10-minute test to read/write random-address 512-byte data blocks at a request queue of 1.

The first diagram shows the average read access time. A smaller time is better here. That's why the TwinMOS X4, Transcend JetFlash 130 and Pretec Bulletproof are the losers. Their access time is far higher than that of the other drives.

The writes access time is higher, of course. The Transcend JetFlash 185 is in the lead having a much lower write access time than the others. And there are seven drives that have fallen behind. The TwinMOS X4 is the worst one in this test just it was in terms of read access time.
