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.

Synology quote Sequential Read/Write performance figures for the DS218j at 113MB/s and 112MB/s respectively, something we were able to confirm and even better a little with the ATTO benchmark. The tested drive produced a read score of 118MB/s for both RAID 0 and RAID 1arrays with writes at 117MB/s for both arrays.
