Bottom LineĬrystalDiskInfo is a great, free option if you have a good level of computer knowledge and want to stay on top of what's going on with your system at all times. There is no Help feature to accompany the program, and there are no explanations for any of the data displayed. No explanations: Unless you already know what you're looking at and what you're looking for in this app, you're not going to get much out of it. The computer's Temperature and general Health Status are displayed prominently at the top, and the lower part of the interface includes a list of all the SMART information the program is gathering. Other preference options include selecting how long the program waits to open after startup, and turning on or off the auto-detection feature.Ĭlear interface: This program provides a clear interface that makes it easy to find what you're looking for. You can turn on Sound Alerts or Mail Alerts, and you can also adjust how frequently the program refreshes its data. ProsĪlerts and options:You can configure the program to send you Alerts in the event that there is a problem in one of the systems being monitored. + Random read/write speeds which is the performance you experience when opening. DiskMark performs real world speed tests and shows: + Sequential read/write speeds which is the performance you see when copying large files. From its dashboard, you can quickly see a long list of up-to-date system data, so you know when things are going well, and if it seems like something is going wrong. Test the performance of your solid state drives (NVME/SATA), hard disk drives and flash drives (pen/usb) in just one minute. Writing single file is fast (after a rough start) writing multiple files is slow.CrystalDiskInfo gives you a complete readout of all your computer's SMART information, as well as a current temperature and health status. Advanced users can tweak several advanced options. A real-time graph shows drive performance and detailed information while the benchmark is running. i cant connect through RDP but managed to connect through IMPI (even logging in to Admin account takes few minutes)Įvent logs at some point start showing different service timeouts at around 10pm to 3am on 3 off those different days. test hard drive speeds DiskMark enables you to benchmark the performance of internal or external disk drives to determine the average read/write speeds. But after 15-20h same exact thing happened, but this time machine was so unresponsive everything crashed and under IMPI there was only a blue screen and a cursor.
Copying/creating single files is still incredibly slow, which is probably a source of all my issues. Quitting all apps (mysql dbs, apache and so on) doesnt change nothing. It is projecting to need 1000 hours to copy my whole xampp folder.
The problem starts when i try to copy multiple files - takes 5 second to copy single file, doesn't matter how small it is. Compressing huge directory into one file was also working correctly (not counting fact that 7z needed 1.5 minutes to load) - 15 gb compressed in 5 minutes onto the same drive. I run some tests and the speed of the drive tested by crystal mark outputed results of 555 mb/s and 75 mb/s reading writing.
Even starting any app toiok minimum of one minute (if it was a simple app). I had to strip these programs of all uncessesary files (like language files and any themes) to be able to copy them in a reasonable time. When i tried to copy 16 mb directory from my local drive (crystal disk info and later crystal disk mark) it was expecting for it to last. The system was terribly unresponsive and slow. Later I noticed that i just have to wait about 5-10 mins to finally connect. Results are presumably below par as the USB3.0 adapter is bottle necking - was too lazy to unplug and open my case to hook up to SATA - besides, wanted to get actual USB 3.0 results that I could expect - as the setup is being used specifically for my Xbox One to get some better. I noticed that I was unable to connect to my server 3 days ago. Also, I found a 250gb Samsung 850 EVO at work, which I formatted and I have hooked up via a USB3.0 Case Adapter.
I am experiencing an issue with Windows 2019 server.
