Disk Bench

What is Disk Bench?

The application provides a straightforward and practical approach to assessing the real-world performance of your storage drives. Unlike synthetic benchmarking tools that may not accurately reflect actual usage scenarios, this program utilizes your current file system to create and copy a file, reflecting the performance you can expect in everyday tasks. The process is simple: the program generates a file and then measures the time it takes to copy that file from one location to another on your local storage. This method accounts for any potential fragmentation or other file system-related factors that can impact performance, giving you a more realistic understanding of your storage's capabilities. By leveraging your system's native file operations, the program delivers insights that are directly applicable to your daily computing experience, empowering you to make informed decisions about storage upgrades or configuration changes that may improve overall system responsiveness
