CrystalDiskMark
Disk benchmark tool for Microsoft Windows From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CrystalDiskMark is an open source disk drive benchmark tool for Microsoft Windows from Crystal Dew World. Based on Microsoft's MIT-licensed Diskspd tool,[2] this graphical benchmark is commonly used for testing the performance of solid-state storage.[3][4] It works by reading and writing through the filesystem in a volume-dependent way. It generates read/write speeds in sequential and random positions with varying numbers of queues and threads.[5] Solid-state drives tend to excel at random IO, as unlike hard drives, they do not need to seek for the specific position to read from or write to.[6]
