MD5 calculation is lighter and faster on any modern CPU than SHA-1. There are many tests over the Web confirming this fact.

I suppose SuperImager just has some implementation problems of MD5 support at higher speed.

Absolutely agree if we're assuming the same general-purpose CPU is used. What I'm speculating is that this imaging device has a co-processor that is dedicated to calculating the SHA-1 hash. Perhaps this one

Hi guys
There is no issue with implementing MD5 on SuperImager unit.
MD5 HASH still can run at 15GB/min on SSD and it is a little far from Ditto that was mention in this thread.
It is very simple SuperImager take advantage of the Intel SHA-1 Optimizer for i5//i7 and achieve those high speed performances.
In most of the time (include Guidance Software that support SHA-1) user has a choice to chose the HASH mechanism, so he can take advantage of the high speed of SHA-1.
that is all.
thank u
