HD Tune Pro gives us accurate read, write and access time results and for the last couple of years has been gaining popularity amongst reviewers. It is now considered a must have application for storage device testing.

The EON11-S neither pulls ahead, nor falls behind, in our USB 2.0 test. It puts up a pretty standard average of 30.8 MB/s.

Again, nothing exactly surprising or exciting happening with the EON11-S' USB 2.0 write performance. It is definitely one of the higher performing machines, though not by a wide margin.

Moving to USB 3.0, the EON11-S manages to hang with the other systems and stay towards the top of the pack.

USB 3.0 write performance is pretty good on the system. It comes in in second place, with the competition not too far behind. The GIGABYTE P2542G machine continues to hold the lead with nearly 30MB/s faster performance.
