One thing I would like to know here is.. how do you check the Photoshop starting time say in 4.3s an 4.1s for diffrent SSD. How do you measure such small difference? Which tool you use? Stop watch or any...?

Automated software (self-coded). We also do 10 runs for each SSD and average.

Ohh.. That's Great! Taking an average will give us almost close to perfect readings.
