I'm trying to compare 2 versions of a backup software product. I setup all IO to go to a dedicated drive.
Is there a way with performance monitor (or anything else) to track the number of IO operations.
I know I can measure disk queue length and different stats like that, but I'd like to know the exact number of IO operations.
The metric you are looking for is "Disk Transfers/sec" under "Physical Disk" in Performance Monitor.
