Mytour has addressed the issue of testing USB read and write speed multiple times, which is of significant interest to users, especially those with computer knowledge or who want to delve into details about their newly purchased devices. Each type of USB has different capacities and speeds when copying data to or from it.
In this article, Mytour introduces a tool for testing USB read and write speed.
How to Test USB Read and Write Speed
In this article, Mytour will utilize a very familiar software called DLC Boot, an extremely useful tool for Windows installation and recovery. Within DLC Boot, there are numerous tools including methods for testing USB read and write speed. First, ensure to download DLC Boot from the link provided.
- Additionally, you will need to install WinRAR for extracting files if your computer does not already have it installed.
Step 1: After completing the DLC Boot process, proceed to extract this tool according to the instructions below the image.
Step 2: Next, navigate to the extracted folder > select the DLCBoot.exe file > right-click >Run as administrator.
Step 3: When the DLC Boot interface appears, locate the USB Tools section, which contains all tools related to USB.
Step 4: In USB Tools, proceed to select Test USB to conduct the USB read and write speed test.
Step 5: Here, choose English language > select Select Target to choose the hard drive or USB drive to be tested.
Next, select the USB drive you previously inserted into your computer or any other hard drive you wish to test the read and write speed, rather than just the USB test speed.
Step 6: In the Data volume section, you have two options to test the USB read and write speed: using the entire USB capacity for testing (which can take a long time) or using a specific number of MB. Here, Mytour chooses 1024 MB to conduct the test quickly. If you have time, it's recommended to choose more to accurately test the USB read and write speed.
As soon as the test begins, the system will notify you that if you only test one empty partition, you won't be able to identify errors in the existing data partitions. Press OK to skip and continue testing the USB read and write speed.
Step 7: Start the tool on DLC Boot to begin testing the USB read and write speed. Please note that this test will have a certain impact on the USB drive and computer, so it's best to let everything run smoothly until the test is complete.
Step 8: Wait a moment for the USB read and write speed test process to complete. You will see the Reading Speed is 90.7 MB/s and the Writing Speed is 9.68 MB/s. Now you know the speed when copying or reading files.
Note: It's advisable to test the USB read and write speed multiple times for the most accurate results, and each time, use a different capacity.
In this way, we have completed testing the USB read and write speed. Through the speed check using DLC Boot, you'll find this tool quite simple, yet it also comes in handy when you don't have any other software on your computer. There are many other tools for checking the read and write speed of USB drives as well as HDD and SSD drives at Mytour for your reference.
