(btw, i wan't a new HDD so i wan't to know wich one performs better)

is there any benchmark programm for HDD, since there is a GFX, CPU and MEM. benchmarks thread running i tought HDD should have one thread too
any programms?

INSTG8R & I (plus a few others iirc) did one using HDTach... good "end user/desktop pattern" type of test.

IoMeter is another, albeit geared to "server patterns" type tests.

* BOTH would be NICE to see!

I.E./E.G.-> Each person does a IoMeter result, & a HDTach result...

APK

pt · Aug 26, 2006

here it is the hdtach at quick, on my old 40gb ide seagate

how do i run the IOmeter?

It's a bit "nerdy" but, there is an entire section in its .pdf file it comes with... it uses 2 programs (Iometer.exe & Dynamo.exe) & can run remotely, or locally.

* READ IT!

(Sorry to be so "terse" about it, but I have to run & meet a pal... we are "laying low" tonite (FRIDAY of all nites to do THAT), & chillin' to Philmz (movies) tonite @ my place, but I have to meet him @ a store (buying MuNcHiEz!!!)).

APK

P.S.=> Ordinarily (it's been a while since I used it myself) I would write it out for you, but AM in huge hurry... & I asked the SAME QUESTIONS myself.

Again - sorry!

It's NOT mandatory to run that for your tests man... if it is too much hassle, don't!

(Still, would be NICE to see both test patterns types tested here)... apk

mine-

2x hitachi 80gb sataII raid 0(ich7r)

pt · Aug 26, 2006

does anyone has one of the new seagate hdd with perpendicular recording (7200.10)?
i would like to see the score of that one

did you use the quick or long one tigger69?

Search thru my posts, look for the test we did there (have to make this short, my friend is waiting for me in the other room):

ONE WITH INSTG8R in it, he has one... tore me apart on READS, but I got him on Access/Seek & CPU use (big on both here).

APK

P.S.=> BUT, I also use the FASTEST SATA I disks there is, huge buffers on them (16mb each) & IN RAID 0 (vs. his single disk perp. tech recording type) & 10,000rpm rate... hence, the faster Access/Seek times.

My RAID 0 array is also driven via a Caching SATA controller w/ 128mb ECC RAM onboard it AND an Intel "Super I/O" firmware/cpu on it to offload my SYSTEM mobo CPU (hence, it showed 0% CPU-use)... apk

long one.
is this any good?.

Here you go:

Steevo · Aug 26, 2006

PCI bus limited.

I have a set of these in a intel mobo that will run much faster, faster than a set of the "almighty" raptors.

pt · Aug 26, 2006

keep them comming
the ones above are quick or long benches?

Deleted member 24505 · Aug 26, 2006

heres a quick one-

giorgos th. · Aug 26, 2006

Seagate barracuda 160gb sata II,set as sata I.

pt · Aug 26, 2006

looks like tigger69 Hitachi's are kicking ass's

Updated score on the first post of the thread

Ketxxx · Aug 26, 2006

erm, it doesnt say in the chart, so im guessing places are done by burst results?

giorgos th. · Aug 26, 2006

as it seems from the chart,yes.

yes, should i put it in other way?

Ketxxx · Aug 26, 2006

probably just worth noting results are by burst result. if your looking for maximum accuracy from the test tho use the long one, it still only takes like a minuite at most. (well for me anyway)

pt · Aug 26, 2006

NEW RULES:
use the long run for better scores
scores are put in by burst result

here is mine in long bench:

You got some pretty nice (if not AMAZING) graphics scores. But the HDD performance really lags behind a chunk... All you need is a second HDD of the same size and generation of your current and make a RAID0 setup, and you will more than double that speed. Windows will boot much much faster, games will load much faster, as well as levels in games, or anything else, including windows page files and performing a defrag.

Good luck!
