Asus Maximus VI Formula (Z87) Motherboard Review

The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage systems performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customize your performance measurement including queue depth, overlapped I/O and even a comparison mode with the option to run continuously.

Use ATTO Disk Benchmark to test any manufacturers RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives and SSD drives and notice that ATTO products will consistently provide the highest level of performance to your storage.

Our testing uses a Kingston HyperX 3K SSD.

As is the case with all of the other Z87 motherboards that we have tested, the native SATA 6Gb/s ports provide restriction-free drive performance.

Devices connected to ASMedia's ASM1061 controllers will be limited to around 400MB/s transfer rates. These ports should be reserved for mechanical storage when all of the Z87 chipset's SATA connections have been used.
