Samsung 470 SSD 256 GB
Running in Power Saver since I forgot to switch it back, been on battery for awhile!

How does having any other programs runnings in the background affect the outcome of the WSAT? I would imagine it would in my opinion.

We all know that your WEI score is taken from the lowest # for that set, in this example it looks like it has taken the Disk Random 16.0 Read 116.05 MB/s 7.2, my disc score in WEI shows a 7.2, but there is a 7.1 in the Grouped IOs 10.18 units 7.1

So maybe I am wrong in my theory, shocker!

[toughbook]

Not sure if it has been stated in the thread since I did not read every one. Can someone please explain what each score tests for, generally what it is? I realize what some of them are of course, but some of them I don't get:huh:

It is amazing to see the difference in the scores when it comes to times between the HDD and SSD tests in several of the scores. This is the 1st time I have found such a set of examples comparing all differnet types in one place. Great job on starting this thread awhile back!
