CrystalDiskMark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0.3.
The IronWolf 110 doesn't handle the CrystalDiskMark benchmark tests, at a deep queue depth of 32, too well. Looking at the two benchmark result screens, it appears that the Seagate controller has a preference for compressible data particularly when it comes to writes.
