About HD Tune Pro 5.70
HD Tune Pro is a hard disk / SSD 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.

Unfortunately, HD Tune does not generate any fancy independent graph outputs in particular, so I just took a screenshot of the program. The Crucial X8 1TB remained very flat on average. It differed slightly in magnitude than HD Tach -- probably due to testing algorithms used -- but its performance characteristics were identical in practice. Other than that, the results were top tier across the range; the recorded access time was very low as we would expect from an external solid state drive. The X8 1TB posted an average of 327.5MB/s for its sequential read speed, which is, again, much faster than the LaCie Mobile SSD 500GB at 220.0MB/s. The Crucial X8 1TB's tested latency was identical after rounding compared to AIDA64 and HD Tach at 0.088 ms. Do keep in mind the discussion we had on the previous page, as it still applies here.
