IOMeter is another open-source synthetic benchmarking tool that is able to simulate the various loads placed on hard drives and solid-state drive technology.
We set IOmeter up (as shown above) to test both backup and restore performance on a 100GB file.
The T7 Shield displayed showed strong performance in our backup/restore tests with a backup speed of 507.77MB/s (1,929.35 IOPS) and a faster restore performance of 649.83MB/s (2,478.99 IOPS).
