### Benchmarking Data Transfer Rates
|
||||
|
||||
Real data transfer rates can easily be checked using the program `pv`.
|
||||
The following command will create a file on the target drive and show the data transfer rate while
|
||||
writing.
|
||||
In the following case `/mnt/usb1/tmp` is the path of the target file.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cat /dev/zero | pv > /mnt/usb1/tmp
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After this the read speed can be checked by using the just created temporary file.
|
||||
The following command will display the read speed.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cat /mnt/usb1/tmp | pv > /dev/zero
|
||||
```
