MBBench

MBBench is a useful tool for anyone looking to check the speed of their hard drives and recording devices. One important note to keep in mind is that while the "Burn Test" function does not display the speed of your device, it does provide a good estimate by measuring the speed at which data is sent to the recording device. This feature simulates a burn on either a CD or DVD and works with devices that are compatible with iTunes.

It is important to point out that during the "Burn Test" feature, the media is left blank and the laser is turned off. This helps to ensure accurate results. Additionally, the software has been updated with new features and bug fixes in the latest release.

For example, version 1.0b3 now displays the Burn Speed when a media is being burned using LiquidCD, although it should be noted that this feature does not work for burning cue/bin files. This latest release has also addressed an issue that previously caused bad values to be reported when resizing the window.

Overall, MBBench is a valuable tool for those looking to optimize their hard drive and recording device speeds. With its informative data and useful features, users will find it to be an essential addition to their software collection.
