Intel’s SRT (Smart Response Technology) can create a hybrid environment for a SSD (Solid State Drive) and standard mechanical drive. It has 2 modes; Enhanced (safer and slower), and Maximum (faster but riskier). Below are the results:
Individual Benchmarks:
-
- Intel SRT: Mechanical
-
- Intel SRT: mSATA
-
- Intel SRT: Enhanced
-
- Intel SRT: Maximized
Conclusion:
Intel SRT doesn’t keep up with a SSD, but what SRT Maximum does for access time is impressive. I personally won’t use Enhanced, there isn’t much difference from the plain mechanical drive.
