James was Running some disk performance tests to compare The Imation to the Crucial Solid State Drives. Included for comparison was a standard Seagate Momentous Laptop Hard drive.

The first test was preformed using MS Windows perfmon utility (perfmon.msc). The average read and write speeds were compared during a file copy operation. The file was fixed and large enough to "smear" out any small deviations, due to operating system (or other extraneous) activity. This comparison utilized the windows file system, and copied from the operating systems disk. The results were there fore some what limited, and accordingly showed no difference between disks.
