- These are reported results from the DiskTimerII program as of Mar. 7,
- 1987. DiskTimerII measures performance on large (24KB) data transfers
- and on access time (seeking, head movement). The results are
- independent of the file system, cache, amount of free space, System and
- Finder versions, etc. There is no direct translation of these results
- to perceived performance in ordinary Mac usage.
-
- On HyperDrives, the seek test provides meaningful results only when run
- from a drawer which is contiguous for more than 1MB.
-
- Multiple results from the same drive by the same submittor which vary by
- not more than 5% have been combined into one report by taking the best
- result for each of the three tests. Where three or more reports from
- different submittors on the same drive were available, I have omitted
- those having results on all three tests which fell between the best and
- worst shown below for that drive.
-
- Additional reports are welcome.
