HDTune 3.00

HDTune v3.00


HDTune tests a similar level of features that HDTach does, but with a slightly different access pattern and thus can provide us with an additional set of benchmark numbers to compare between storage configurations.  Here we can get the minimum, maximum and average transfer rates as well as the burst rates, access times and CPU utilizations.

Our results in HDTune are pretty similar to those in HDTach though our transfer speed results are only indicating read speeds, not write.  The Apex hard drive is really only beat by the Intel X25-M and the pair of VelociRaptors in RAID-0 while still maintaining SSD-like access times.
