IOMeter is another open source synthetic benchmarking tool which is able to simulate the various loads placed on hard drive and solid state drive technology.

We set IOmeter up (as shown above) to test both backup and restore performance on a 100GB file.

To confirm that the 12big is all about dealing with large files, the way it dealt with the 100GB file in our Backup/Restore tests using the Thunderbolt 3 interface is impressive. Excluding the RAID 1 results, it averages 710.80MB/s for reads and 571.02MB/s for writes across the arrays.
