Kingston HyperX Savage 240GB: Review and Quick Performance Benchmark

2015-05-04
hey and welcome back to hardware I'm boxed I'm Harris Matt and today we were taking a peek at Kingston's mid-range SSD the HyperX savage well notice quick is the HyperX predator Savage is supposed to be a significant step up from the hyper experience Savage is powered by fires an s10 quad-core a channel controller and loaded with two shades is a 19 Dan flash these specifications shrewdest making Kingston's faster SATA SSD today adding up to recorded 560 megabytes per second read 530 megabytes per second row we're gonna be running a tweet performance test for you a little later but for now listen soap another box and take a look inside alright so on top we've got the drive itself underneath is the thickness spacer laptops that made it really packed underneath we've got the three dimensions apt up with the HyperX sticker instruction manual and activation code and they've also thrown in a USB external displays up pretty handy and looks like pretty high quality sorry cable mounting screws and what appears to be his head so what appear to be a pen before you'll find is actually just the skies is one Kingston's onto the fat and none of us actually had arrived with a pen anymore so what this is is actually a magnetic screwdriver for installation let's take a look at the USB 3 external enclosure this would be a pretty high quality build the bottom is plastic but we do have a brushed aluminium finish on top and the slightly protruding super hot gravy sign you can also lock and unlock the case here just slides off like so you've also got a USB 3 cable inside now let's take a look at the drive itself sir it's got a nice matte black finish over the whole Drive and then we do have a nice red facade on the front with the hot bricks branding in the silver it does look pretty nice but I mean overall it is just a standard two and a half inch drive sir what's left to do but it stick it in and give it a benchmark now let's do some quick benchmarking of a SSD benchmark speak the savage from the drop-down list and hit stop first we have the sequential ride tests and here we see the savage it's very close to the quoted 5 minute 30 megabytes per second right hitting four ninety eight point eight three megabytes per second now the sequential raid and again we get close to the advertised speed of 560 megabytes per second with 511 24 four megabytes per second the random 4k performance is comparable to other high-performance side of SSDs such as the samsung SSD 850 pro it looks like the fork a threaded performance is pretty comfortable - finally we have to access time results and we have some pretty mixed results oh yeah the broad access time is pretty fast and point over five tubular seconds while the read access time is rather slurred for an SSD at point one seven two milliseconds for wrapping things up I'm going to take a quick look at the copy benchmark hit start and watch I've started test took just a few seconds and diluted 437 megabytes per second the program tests which pages many more smaller rate writes to a bit longer that was still managed a reasonable two hundred fifty seven point nine one megabytes per second lastly the game could be benchmarked to just four and a half seconds and fell just short of three hundred and ten megabytes per second so where roll looks like the HyperX tab which is pretty good mainstream points SSD thank you for tuning in to another Hardware on blocks I'm focusing in product preview his wife he's subscribe we'll see you next time yeah
