The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage systems performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customize 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 manufacturers RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives and SSD drives and notice that ATTO products will consistently provide the highest level of performance to your storage.


Official Sequential read/write performance figures for the 500GB drive (the same across all the drives in the range) is up to 560MB/s for reads and 510MB/s for writes. These figures we were able to confirm with the ATTO benchmark with the review drive producing a read performance of 564MB/s. When it came to writes, the drive was a little faster than the official figure, producing a score of 522MB/s.
