EFD Software's HD Tune is described on the company's web site as such: "HD Tune is a hard disk utility with many functions. It can be used to measure the drive's performance, scan for errors, check the health status (S.M.A.R.T.), securely erase all data and much more." The latest version of the benchmark added temperature statistics and improved support for SSDs, among a few other updates and fixes.
The HD Tune benchmark told a similar story to SiSoft SANDRA. The SanDisk CloudSpeed 1000E offered very competitive write speeds, though read speeds outpaces only the Micron drive.
