(Unformatted Array 64KB Stripes) Sequential Compressible Performance:

 

HD Tune Pro 5 64KB Block Size, Set midway between fast and accurate.

HD Tune is a Hard Disk utility which has the following functions:

Benchmark: measures the performance

Info: shows detailed information

Health: checks the health status by using SMART

Error Scan: scans the surface for errors (DO NOT SCAN A SSD)

Temperature display

HD Tune Pro gives us accurate read, write and access time results and for the last couple of years has been gaining popularity amongst reviewers.

 

HD Tune Pro Read

 

 

 

 

Here we are concerned with the average read transfer rate. 1057.6 MB/s is well more than double the speed of a single drive when tested at a 64KB block size. The 840’s take the crown from Vector in this test.

 

HD Tune Pro Write

 

 

 

 

Capacity is holding back sequential performance. This is expected.
