Benchmark – HD Tune Pro Random Access
Random Access takes the largest chunk of all the I/O based operations. Unfortunately, this is one department where hard drives really suck, and SSDs really tend to shine (for reads at least). HD Tune tests random access at various points on the disk using various transfer sizes and reports the operation throughput, access time and data rate for each. I’ve broken down these attributes into three different charts below.



As you can see from the charts above, random writes are far better in traditional hard disks compared to flash based memory.
