- Searching Benchmark tool which shows beside READ also WRITE speed for HDs + USB sticks
- Posted by Joe deAngelo on January 16th, 2008
I am searching for a Benchmark tool which shows me beside READ also WRITE speed.
Most of the benchmark tools which I have seen so far measure only the read speed but not the write speed.
Furthermore the bench tool should be able to handle USB sticks as well.
Can someone recommend me such a tool ?

The free version of HDtach only does read benchmarking; the fee version also
does writes.
Since the free version of HDtach handles USB sticks, I'm pretty sure that
the fee version will benchmark writes to USB sticks.

No idea whether they have an english version.
For manual testing, you can also copy a large file to stick
and then safely remove it. This gives you pretty much the
time the actual write took.
