Testing performance with f3read / f3write
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
f3read / f3write assume your USB Drive is mounted.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Change /dev/sdX1 on the command line for your USB Drive.
|
|
NOTE: Change /mnt/usb on the command line for your mount point.
|
|
|
|
# mkdir /mnt/usb
|
|
# mount /dev/sdX1 /mnt/usb
|
|
|
|
WARNING: f3write may destroy any previously stored data on /dev/sdX
|
|
|
|
$ f3write /mnt/usb/5EBD-5C80/
|
|
$ f3read /mnt/usb/5EBD-5C80/
|
|
|

Bash scripts
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Although the simple scripts listed in this section are ready for use,
|
|
they are really meant to help you to write your own scripts.
|
|
So you can personalize F3 to your specific needs.
|
|
|
|
f3write.h2w - Script to create files exactly like H2testw.
|
|
|
|
Use example: f3write.h2w /mnt/usb/5EBD-5C80/
|
|
|
|
log-f3wr - Script that runs f3write and f3read, and records
|
|
their output into a log file.
|
|
|
|
Use example: log-f3wr log-filename /mnt/usb/5EBD-5C80/
|
|
|
|
The two example template scripts are in /usr/doc/f3-${VERSION}/
|
|
|
|
Please note that the scripts and use examples above assume that
|
|
f3write, f3read, and the scripts are in the same folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Quick capacity tests with f3probe
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
f3probe is the fastest drive test and suitable for large disks because
|
|
it only writes what?s necessary to test the drive. It operates directly
|
|
on the (unmounted) block device and needs to be run as a privileged user:
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Change /dev/sdX on the command line for your USB Drive.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: f3probe will destroy any previously stored data on /dev/sdX
|
|
|
|
# ./f3probe --destructive --time-ops /dev/sdX
|
|
|
|
|
|
Correcting capacity to actual size with f3fix
|
|
=============================================
|
|
|
|
f3fix creates a partition that fits the actual size of the fake drive.
|
|
|
|
Use f3probe?s output to determine the parameters for i3fix:
|
|
|
|
# ./f3fix --last-sec=16477878 /dev/sdX
