alt3rn1ty Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 ReadSpeed - https://www.grc.com/ReadSpeed.htm Its another of Steve's Freeware utilities (among others such as DNS Benchmark / SQRL / InSpectre) This was developed as a tool to help with developing the next version of SpinRite. The download will help you create a bootable Thumb drive with ReadSpeed on it, which you then need to figure out how to boot from on your machine (for my laptop I have to go into the BIOS and disable Secure Boot first, then re-boot and enter the Dell Boot menu to then boot from the USB), and after use enable Secure boot again. Bit of a PITA, but to get a good uninterrupted measure of how your HDs/SSDs are doing its necessary. Have a watch of the video on the site and read the page. Another handy tool. Download links are near the bottom of the page linked above. Check it periodically for updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
