Benchmark: Crystal Disk Mark

Here's a surprise. We were expecting to see the m4 SSD deliver middle-of-the-pack results when tasked with repeated transfers of very small uncompressed files, but Crucial's optimisations are such that the 128GB drive offers some of the best scores we've seen.

The drive manages to beat the benchmark-setting Vertex 3 at uncompressed 4K reads at a queue depth of 32, but loses out in write performance.
