This page discusses additional tests for SD Cards. The 'base' tests are described in NAND_Testing.
Test procedure
Preparations
- On an XO with the latest stable OS release installed
- Download and compile flashbench from git://git.linaro.org/people/arnd/flashbench.git
- Download the flashbench wrapper script from http://dev.laptop.org/~martin/flashbench/flashbench_sdtest.sh , place it in the same directory as the flashbench executable
Procedure
- When booting the test bench machine, ensure no SD cards are present in the external slot
- Insert uSD card with adapter in the external slot
- Open a Sugar Terminal or GNOME Terminal
- run
flashbench_sdtest.sh /dev/mmcblk1 - Copy output
Cards tested
"A" SanDisk C2 4GB uSD
NAME=SU04G OEMID=0x5344 MANFID=0x000003 HWREV=0x8 FWREV=0x0
"B" Toshiba C2 4GB uSD
NAME=SD OEMID=0x4144 MANFID=0x00001d HWREV=0x1 FWREV=0x0
Results
Segment size vs throughput.
The first and last examples are based on numbers provided by Arnd Bergmann
