The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage system's performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customise your performance measurement, including queue depth, overlapped I/O and even a comparison mode with the option to run continuously.
Use ATTO Disk Benchmark to test any manufacturer's RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives, and SSD drives. Notice that ATTO products consistently provide the highest level of performance for your storage.
Although we used a completely different test platform to benchmark the DC3000ME than the other data centre/enterprise drives we've reviewed, we used version 4 to use as a loose comparison to other data centre/enterprise drives and the latest version 5 to show the performance of Kingston's drive.
Kingston rates the Sequential performance of the 15.36TB version of the DC3000ME as up to 14,000MB/s and up to 9,700MB/s for Sequential read and writes, respectively. Using the ATTO 4 benchmark, we couldn't get close to those figures with test results of 8,080MB/s for reads and 8,060MB/s for writes. However, those figures are the fastest we've seen for any drive we've tested that's aimed at the data centre/enterprise market segment.
ATTO 5 brings new features, enhancements and changes for more accurate testing of the latest drives. Using this version of ATTO, we confirmed the official Sequential read figure with a peak test result of 14,030 MB/s (4 MB data size). When it came to writing performance, however, we still couldn't quite reach the official maximum of 9,700MB/s, with a peak test result of 9,180MB/s (24MB).
