fio is the way http://git.kernel.dk/?p=fio.git;a=summary
you can simply test any storage / raid level / setup and you can compare
all choosing the right solution.
But please, check every blocksize, all the disk areas and so on.
If you test only some areas you can see overestimated or underestimated
results because of caches, better mechanichal performances on some areas
and so on.
If you test all you have an average result that's close to the reality.
Sequential transfers tipically looks pretty ...but they are not what you
are searching for.
Random IOPS (read / write / combined) are what you are searching for.
I'm agree that real loads are something mixed but RANDOM IOPS are closer
to the reality.
what you have to search are the worst values and they are what do you
need to find how is big your I/O cake.
