"Benchmark Drive"

[FatAlaskan 0]

Not being a real whiz at any of this, can someone please take a few moments to tell me what this function (or whatever!) is in Defraggler? What does it do? Why is it important? What does it tell me? Why do I care? Etc.?

 

Thanks to all!!

Benchmark drive is a feature provided to test your drive read/write speeds.

 

This is useful for 3 basic things:

 

- Know if your drive is running as fast as it should be.

- Know if your drive is running TOO slowly (dying or PIO mode).

- Comparisons (how fast is your drive compared to older/newer ones?).

I ran the benchmark feature, but all I got was a "benchmark completed" notice in the status column. No results or anything, and I can't find a button to view them anywhere.
