hIOmon SSD Performance Monitor - Understanding desktop usage patterns.

[Ao1]

To compare more easily

Heavy use (CPU maxed out)


Light use (This is a fresh script run)


AS SSD Benchmark (This is cummulative to the heavy use script).


MW2 Multi Player (Fresh script with only MW2 runing).


MW2 Single Player (Fresh script with only MW2 runing).


Here I copy the Adobe folder from Program Files to the desktop: 2502 Items in the directory with a combined size of 710MB


Here I copy an AVI file from desktop to the C drive. File size 635MB


Here I ran a winsat disk command.


Some observations

If you are multitasking with apps that require processing power you are unlikely to hit maximum sequential speeds because the CPU will most likely max out.
It would seem that the maximum QD length gets quite high at times, but unless you run something like AS SSD, which tests at up to QD64, it seems very hard to get above an average QD of 2 (Just as you said Comp)
