CrystalDiskMark Portable

CrystalDiskMark Portable is intended to quickly assess the performance of your hard drives. Currently, the application can measure sequential and random read/write speeds. Crystal Disk Mark Portable performs admirably and effectively for its intended use.

Features and Highlights

• Measure the speed of sequential reads and writes. 
• Measure random 512KB, 4KB, and 4KB (Queue Depth = 32). 
• Read/Write Speed Choose test data (random, 0Fill, 1Fill). 
• Theme support 
• Multi-language support.

Important Notice

• It may shorten the life of an SSD or USB memory. 
• The benchmark result is NOT compatible with different major versions. 
• "MB/s" stands for 1,000,000 bytes per second. 
• The outcome is influenced by factors such as test file size, position, fragmentation, controller type (IDE, SATA, RAID, SCSI, NVMe), and CPU speed. 
• A portion of SSDs rely on test data (random, zero fill). 
• When you run CrystalDiskMark with Administrator privileges, it does not display Network Drive. If you want to measure Network Drive, please run it without Administrator rights. UAC Dialog: YES -> with Administrator Rights; NO -> without Administrator Rights.

Unit

• 1 GiB equals 1024MiB = 1024x1024KiB = 1024x1024x1024B 
• 1GB equals 1000MB = 1000x1000KB = 1000x1000x1000B

FAQ

Why is the result different from other benchmark software? 
The result is determined by the test file size, position, fragmentation, ID (PATA)/SATA/RAID/SCSI controller, and CPU speed, among other factors. 

Failed benchmark test. 
It may not be sufficient privilege to create a test file. Please launch Crystal Disk Mark Portable with administrator privileges. 

How to Fix CrystalDiskMark's UI Bug 
If zip edition does not work properly, please check the security: unblock option and extract the zip file again. If you run FixUI.bat with a zip file, it may work properly. I'd want you to utilize the installer or store edition.
