Linux Solid-State Drive Benchmarks

... switching to
solid-state drives for their reliability, extended battery life, and
faster performance, SSDs are becoming quite common and finding
themselves meeting many Linux hosts. How though does the real-world
performance differ between hard disk drives and solid-state drives on
Linux? We have run several tests atop Ubuntu on a Samsung netbook with a
HDD and SSD. In addition, we have also looked at the encryption
performance using both types of drives. Check it out at Phoronix. Linux Solid-State Drive Benchmarks - More news at ...

... and uses the EXT3 file-system by default. Ubuntu 9.04 Alpha 4 provides the Linux 2.6.28 kernel (it will not end up shipping with Linux 2.6.29 ), GNOME 2.25.5, X Server 1.6.0 RC2, xf86-video-intel 2.6.1, Mesa 7.3, GCC 4.3.3, and uses the EXT3 file-system by default but there is EXT4 support . For these initial tests comparing the Ubuntu 9.04 development performance to that of Ubuntu 8.10 we used a Samsung NC10 netbook with an Intel Atom N270 CPU, OCZ Core Series V2 32GB SSD , 2GB of DDR2 memory , and Intel integrated graphics.

Intel X25-E Extreme SSD Benchmarks On Linux
Phoronix —
In early January we had delivered Linux Solid-State Drive Benchmarks of an OCZ Core Series V2 SSD, which was a low-cost low-capacity single-cell drive. The increased performance and decreased power consumption compared to a 5400RPM Serial ATA 2.0 hard drive was nice for a netbook, but how are the higher-end solid-state drives performing? In this article, we have a high-performance Intel X25-E Extreme SSD on a System76 notebook running Ubuntu Linux. [image] Last year Intel had entered the disk storage industry with the introduction of a few ultra-fast (and ultra expensive) ...

Moblin V2 vs. Ubuntu Netbook Remix vs. Ubuntu MID

... compare to other mobile-focused Linux distributions? We have benchmarked Moblin V2 Alpha 2 and compared it against what is likely their biggest competitor in the mobile space, Ubuntu Netbook Remix, and the LPIA-based Ubuntu MID edition. Which of these mobile operating systems is the fastest? We hope to find out today. [image] Similar to our Ubuntu MID power testing last week, all testing was done on an Atom-based Samsung NC10 netbook with 2GB of RAM and an OCZ Core Series V2 SSD added in. On the Moblin side, we used Moblin V2 Alpha 2 while we used ...
Dell Inspiron Mini 9 Netbook
Phoronix —
... While there are many netbooks on the market from a variety of different vendors, for the most part they are composed of the same hardware. They generally carry an Intel Atom processor with a solid-state drive or hard drive, 1GB or so of memory, and an 8" to 10" screen. One area though where these netbooks can differentiate is with the operating system. While Microsoft's Windows XP continues to be used on a large number of netbook computers, when it comes to those vendors deploying Linux each usually has a slightly different flavor. ASUS prefers a spin of Xandros on their ...
