MSX disk benchmark tool

DOSSCAN?
http://www.msxarchive.nl/pub/msx/utils/harddisk/dosscan.pma

Sorry for necromancing such an old thread, but DOSSCAN doesn't seem too work on Nextor 2.1.x. Not even if I use NSYSVER to force the reported version to 2.20: in this case the utility is at least convinced to run, but doesn't do anything useful.

Are there any other disk benchmark utilities that are compatible with Nextor 2.1.x?

I was also quite disappointed that my trusty old DOSSCAN didn't work in Nextor, was curious about the speed of nextor/Carnivore2/CF card/turboR combi.... but now I see this thread and indeed, on my FAT12 partition, using NSYSVER, it works!

Who is 'rowi' who made this tool?

Oh, for those interested: it reported 458kB/s. That's faster than on my Novaxis SCSI with a physical hard drive, which got me 400kB/s on my turboR, if I remember correctly When I run it on a Nextor RAMdisk of 1MB, I get 504 kB/s! That's pretty fast.

btw Manuel , set buffers =5 will increase the read speed

I got dosccan working in Nextor . Removed the msx-dos2.sys version check, now it only checks the kernel version.
Added Nextor running check. Added Nextor sector read when Nextor is used. Set the max sector on 65535 when partition has more sectors than 65535 .

With dosscan /t I get 327KB/s on the OCM . Not as fast as the novaxis scsi but close ( with my own novaxis rom I reached 347KB/s because I used INI instead of INIR.
