IOMeter is another open-source synthetic benchmarking tool that is able to simulate the various loads placed on the 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.

Our backup/restore tests didn't cause the XS2000 any problems, the drive producing strong performance figures for both backup (1,191MB/s, 4,544.31 IOPS) and restore (1,401MB/s, 5,347.09 IOPS) jobs.
