Thanks for the info.
Are you willing to overtake the start post of this thread and the job to keep it up-to-date?

@all:
The start post has just been updated according to N6O7’s infos.

@Fernando ,

Oops, of course not…(looks I’m not the only one to keep some updated). Some are just new optimizer tools

you said: "Other SSD “Optimizer” tools will be added, when they are available and if there is a demand for them."

Regards!

PS: I read nearly everyday this forum offline to keep me informed, but my signature specs is still my actuals…not much technical questions that have been already answered to ask now.

1) The new ATTO version v4.00.f2 is a very useful benchmark tools to bench any SSD drives or HDD drives. It is reliable and stable on every different architectures, and tests results are quite accurate:

@100PIER :
Thanks for your contribution.
The big disadvantage of the ATTO tool is, that it only measures the READ and WRITE speed of strongly compressable files, which is far from the reality while doing your daily work with the PC.

@Fernando ,

The ATTO tool is less optimistic than Samsung Magician and CDM tools:

The ANVIL and AJA tools do give similar R/W sequential results:

@Fernando ,
With this version and the previous one, and with the latest 1809 up to date W10 x64 versions I get this sticky (10/114) error on any Intel SSD tested (optimize option) (old i80GB, old i320 Series, and old i750 series).
I don’t understand why. Did you observe the same ‘bug’ ? However, the TRIM via W10 does work without any problem.

@100PIER :
Since I am currently not using any Intel SSD, I couldn’t test the latest Intel’s SSD Toolbox version.
