About: AS-SSDWith AS SSD Benchmark you can determine your SSD drive's performance by conducting several specific tests. Test the sequential or random read/write performance without using the cache. AS SSD Benchmark reads/writes a 1 GByte file as well as randomly chosen 4K blocks. Additionally, it performs the tests using 1 or 64 threads and it determines the SSD's access time. Two extra benchmark tests examine the drive's behaviour when (1) copying a few big files, a lot of small files and a mixture of file sizes by using cached copy functions of your OS as well as (2) reading/writing data depending on the data's compressibility.
The SanDisk Cruzer Blade 32GB is a USB 2.0-interface flash drive known for its compact, lightweight and portable design. With a capacity of 32GB, this flash drive is enough to store a moderate amount of documents, music files, photo collections, and standard resolution videos.
Despite using the USB 2.0 interface which has a lower transfer speed than USB 3.0 or later, the Cruzer Blade remains one of the most widely used products due to its reliability, wide compatibility, and affordable price.
The test was conducted using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 device with 12GB DDR4 dual channel RAM and Windows 11 22H2 operating system, and connectivity via USB 3.1 Gen 1 port. Although the port used supports high speeds, performance is still limited by the capabilities of flash drives that use USB 2.0 technology.
In performance testing using several benchmark applications, the SanDisk Cruzer Blade 32GB recorded speeds that are in line with USB 2.0 characteristics. According to CrystalDiskMark, the flash drive recorded a read speed of 26.99 MB/s and a write speed of 20.71 MB/s. Meanwhile, testing using ATTO Disk Benchmark with a 64MB block size showed a read speed of 25.10 MB/s and write speed of 10.65 MB/s. These results confirm that this flash drive is more suitable for light storage needs, such as documents or small multimedia files, rather than fast transfer of large files.
Overall, the SanDisk Cruzer Blade 32GB is a simple yet effective storage solution for daily file transfer needs, especially for users who don't require high speeds, but instead prioritize practicality and economical pricing.
