PCMark Vantage
PCMark Vantage is another all in one benchmarking suite, similar to SiSoft Sandra. PCMark simulates common tasks that a user would do on their computer and then creates a score bases on how well the computer handles the task.
We can see an overall score for the RevoDrive is 32832. While there isn’t much for converting that score into actual performance numbers, I can tell you that it is a very good score.
CrystalDiskMark
CrystalDiskMark tests the speed of the drive by performing various sequential and random read/write operations on the drive. This is done for different file sizes.

We noticed during our testing that the write speed that was reported for the various file sizes didn’t seem correct. We tried previous versions of the program and still ran into the same issue. We believe that it is either an incompatibility with the program and the drive, or an incompatibility caused by the version of the BIOS that we were running. On the other hand, the read speeds appear to be more accurate than the write speeds and are in line with other benchmarks that were run. Overall the results of this test should be taken with a grain of salt.
