HDtach is one of the best, in my opinion. Very consistent results.

HDTach is actually one of the worse (earlier versions where far worse)

use Winbench 99 then compare your results to the SR Database

if they match most likely it all will
in a Multiuser environment use IOMeter

for a filesystem benchmark IOZone
