MyDigitalSSD BP4 2.5" & mSATA (240GB) Review
by Kristian Vättö on April 3, 2013 11:13 AM ESTAnandTech Storage Bench 2011—Light Workload
Our light workload actually has more write operations than read operations. The split is as follows: 372,630 reads and 459,709 writes. The relatively close read/write ratio does better mimic a typical light workload (although even lighter workloads would be far more read centric).
The I/O breakdown is similar to the heavy workload at small IOs, however you'll notice that there are far fewer large IO transfers:

4KB | 27% | |||
16KB | 8% | |||
32KB | 6% | |||
64KB | 5% |
The rank of BP4 doesn't change much when we move to a lighter workload.

i find it very annoying to see that modern ssds seem to consume as much power as 5400rpm mechanical HDD...Why no classic HDD listed as reference in power consumption chart ?vol7ron - Tuesday, April 9, 2013 - link
Is there any talk about how compliant this is cross-platform?Samsung had firmware issues that pretty much required Windows to update. Do these play nicely with *nix and Mac?

At this time we have had no issues on any platform with the current FW 4.6.MyDigitalSSD

I have a 128 GB MyDigitalSSD that was purchased in October-2012. Its performed with no issues .. I suspect battery performance might not be ideal, or speed either.. I beat up on this system every day.. use it with Linux on my Lenovo T430s. Reading this review wants me to upgrade - especially since I did not have any issues with this manufacturer.. The low price helps too.
