Intel NUC D54250WYK / WYB Left 4 Dead 2 Performance

Developer: Valve Software

From our Left 4 Dead 2 review:
'Not only does Left 4 Dead 2 provide a chance to test your skills against a whole host of new enemies and using a slew of new equipments, it also lets you play with the new modes and maps created by Valve – and the worst levels created by Valve are still twice as good as the best created by amateur map-makers.'

SATA Performance

Website: ATTO Disk Benchmark

We tested the SATA and performance with an OCZ Vertex 3 240GB, as this is the fastest SSD we've ever tested, and it can test the maximum speed of SATA 3Gbps and SATA 6Gbps ports. With the NUC boards we used an 120GB Intel 525 Series mini PCI-E SSD.

We use ATTO Disk Benchmark, and take the read and write speeds for 1,024KB data chunks.
