Crucial RealSSD M4 128GB Solid State Drive Review

PCMark Vantage is the first objective hardware performance benchmark for PCs running 32 and 64 bit versions of Microsoft Windows Vista.

PCMark Vantage is perfectly suited for benchmarking any type of Microsoft Windows Vista PC from multimedia home entertainment systems and laptops to dedicated workstations and hi-end gaming rigs.

Regardless of whether the benchmarker is an artist or an IT Professional, PCMark Vantage shows the user where their system soars or falls flat, and how to get the most performance possible out of their hardware. PCMark Vantage is easy enough for even the most casual enthusiast to use yet supports in-depth, professional industry grade testing.

PCMark is a good piece of software that allows you to compare results from one system to another. As you can see, we scored 49,362 PCMark Vantage points, which sadly is a bit lower than the likes of the Vertex 3 but still a reasonable score.

The way that particular memory works on an SSD compared to others can really be seen when we look at the results, with the drive being especially stong when importing pictures to Windows Photo Gallery and using Windows Media Center.
