I’ll also show how to install and usehdparmutility for measuring read speed of a disk on Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, RHEL. To get the accurate read/write speed, you should repeat the below tests several times (usually 3-5) and take the average result. Cool Tip:How to choose...
SSD read and write speed indicates how quickly data is written to and read from the storage drive. So, if you want better system performance and responsiveness, you must regularly test SSD read/write speed. Here's how you can test SSD read and write spee
Step 2. Type the following command to test the read/write speed of an SSD. winsat disk -drive c - You can change "C" to another drive letter you want to check. Wait for a while, and you can see the detailed speed data of your disk. The steps of using CMD to check SSD speed ...
In this post we shall use the dd command to test and read and write speed of usb and ssd drives using the dd command. The data transfer speed does not depend solely on the drive, but also on the interface it is connected to. For example a usb 2.0 port has a maximum operational spee...
To run a write test, type or paste the following command:dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/tempfile bs=1M count=1024 conv=fdatasync To test your disk's read speed next, we need a little more setup. The temporary file we created in the previous command is cached, giving you a skewed result....
Max Tech ran Blackmagic's Disk Speed Test tool with a 5GB file size test on both the M2 and M3 models of the 13-inch MacBook Air with 256GB of storage and 8GB of RAM, and they found the SSD in the M3 model achieved up to 33% faster write speeds and up to 82% faster read spe...
Random Read/Write Speed This test writes 4KB in a completely random pattern over an 8GB space of the drive to simulate the sort of random writes that you'd see on an OS drive (even this is more stressful than a normal desktop user would see). I perform three concurrent IOs and run ...

We are technically smarter when it comes to buying an SSD. But that’s not true when we only consider read and write speed, benchmark is only the way to test an SSD’s actual and practical speed. Let’s find out what’s a good speed. ...
The four corners of SSD performance are as follows: random read, random write, sequential read and sequential write speed. Random accesses are generally small in size, while sequential accesses tend to be larger and thus we have the four Iometer tests we use in all of our reviews. ...
