IOMeter is another open-source synthetic benchmarking tool which is able to simulate the various loads placed on the hard drive and solid-state drive technology.

We set IOmeter up (as shown above) to test both backup and restore performance on a 100GB file.

The X8 displayed strong performance in our backup and restore tests with over 750MB/s figures for both.
