Hello list. Can anyone suggest me a way to measure a hard disk speed? I'm thinking about a tool like linux's hdparm / sdparm
A simple solution could be measuring the time required for the generation of a big file, something like "time dd if=/dev/zero of=/some/file bs=whatever count=whatever", however I'd like to find something more specific. Thank you in advance for all ideas you can give me, byee, Manuel -- Anyone who cannot cope with mathematics is not fully human.
