CrystalDiskMark
CrystalDiskMark is a disk benchmark software.It measure sequential reads/writes speed,measure random 512KB, 4KB, 4KB (Queue Depth=32) reads/writes speed, select test data (Random, 0Fill, 1Fill), provide theme support and Multi-Language support.
During our CrystalDiskMark tests, we managed to get a maximum fast read speed of 1,038.04 MB/sec for the Transporter, and 1,048.06 MB/sec for the Transporter Lite.
Writes speeds were just as good, reaching a high of 996.05 MB/sec for the Transporter, and 1,005.62 MB/sec for the Transporter Lite.
AIDA64 Disk Information
Aida64 shows the Transporter with a total capacity of 1,954 GB, while the Transporter Lite has a total 1,907 GB. For a 2TB drive, it sounds about right after formatting.
AIDA64 Linear Read Test
“This test is designed to measure the sustained linear (sequential) reading performance of the storage device by reading all data from the surface of the device.”
ATTO Disk Benchmark
ATTO has created a widely-accepted Disk Benchmark freeware software to help measure storage system performance. As one of the top tools utilized in the industry, Disk Benchmark identifies performance in hard drives, solid state drives, RAID arrays as well as the host connection to attached storage.
Anvil Storage
Anvil’s Storage Utilities is a powerful tool that was designed in order to provide you with a simple means of assessing the read and writer performance of your Solid State Drive or Hard Disk Drive.
PCMark 10 – Full System Drive Benchmark
The Full System Drive benchmark uses a wide-ranging set of real-world traces from popular applications and common tasks to fully test the performance of the fastest modern drives.
This benchmark writes 204 GB of data to the drive over the duration of the test. This data is deleted when the test ends.
To run this test, you need a minimum of 80 GB of free space on the drive, 8 GB of RAM, and a quad-core CPU.
3DMark 10 – Storage Benchmark
Fast storage means shorter loading times and more time in the game. The 3DMark Storage Benchmark is a dedicated component test for measuring the gaming performance of your storage hardware. Using traces recorded from real games, it tests performance for activities such as loading games, saving progress, installing game files, and recording gameplay video streams.
PassMark 11
Fast, easy to use, PC speed testing and benchmarking. PassMark PerformanceTest allows you to objectively benchmark a PC using a variety of different speed tests and compare the results to other computers.
