Subject: P8 Disk Tester Author: FF Castor File: DISK.TEST (2855 bytes) Estimated Download Time (28800 baud): < 1 minute OS: ProDOS 8 ----------------- DISK.TEST uses ProDOS 8 to do three basic speed tests on any disk device, including floppy disks. It reads block 0 a total of 1024 times. It does a sequential read from block 0 to block 1023 (or the max on the drive). And it does a seek test across 1/3 of the drive 100 times. The tests can be used to make ProDOS 8 comparisons between different drives, drive interleaves, and devices. This program is roughly similar to the Disktimer GS program for the Apple IIgs, except DISK.TEST is compatible with Apple II's from the nonplused up through the IIgs. It recognizes the IIgs clock, the No-Slot clock, and any clock driver that places 'seconds' in locations $20F and $210.
