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 test with both random read and write 4k tests, as shown above. There are many ways to measure the IOPS performance of a Solid State Drive, so our results will often vary between the manufacturer’s quoted ratings.

Our own results fell short of OCZ claims. We achieved around 18,000 IOPS in the 4k Random Write test and around 15,000 IOPS in the 4k Random Read test.
