AJA System Test Lite is a great way to test a storage system with a real world speed test. Designed with digital video production and post production needs in mind, it emulates the writing and reading of video files to and from a hard disk and displays the results in a simple, easy to read format, by either data rate or frame rate, including graphs to show performance over time. The latest edition has been tuned to provide more accurate results for SSDs. 

Users can specify resolutions, color spaces, bit depths, compression types and file container types, to emulate their specific digital video production/post workflow, and do preliminary evaluation to see if their storage system will support it, before practical workflow testing begins. 

In short System Test Lite is your accurate guidance tool to ensure you spec out your projects with the correct storage and speed needs in mind for the projects you are supporting.
