I’ll show how to test the read/write speed of a disk from the Linux command line using dd
command.
- Hdparm is a Linux command line utility that allows to set and view hardware parameters of hard disk drives. And it can also be used as a simple benchmarking tool that allows to quickly find out the READ speed of a disk. Hdparm is available from standard repositories on the most Linux distributions. Install hdparm depending on your Linux.

I’ll also show how to install and use hdparm
utility for measuring read speed of a disk on Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, RHEL.
To get the accurate read/write speed, you should repeat the below tests several times (usually 3-5) and take the average result.

dd: TEST Disk WRITE Speed
Run the following command to test the WRITE speed of a disk:
dd: TEST Disk READ Speed
The filetempfile
, that has just been created by the previous command, was cached in a buffer and its read speed is much higher then the real read speed directly from the disk.To get the real speed, we have to clear cache.
Run the following command to find out the READ speed from buffer: Download images website mac.
Cached
Clear the cache and accurately measure the real READ speed directly from the disk:
dd: TEST Read/Write Speed of an External Drive

To check the performance of some External HDD, SSD, USB Flash Drive or any other removable device or remote file-system, simply access the mount point and repeat the above commands.
Or you can replace tempfile
with the path to your mount point e.g.:
Reminder: All the above commands use the temporary file tempfile
. Don’t forget to delete it when you complete the tests.
