Worked great under 10.10 Yosemite. Under 10.11 El Capitan, Blackmagic Disk Speed Test 2.2.2 reports every disk as locked, and therefore not testable. :-(

Version 2.2.2 crashes instantly on OS X 10.6.8. You can fix this but I would say the solution is definitely NOT worth it. First, download and install MacPorts (free open-source) for Snow Leopard from: https://www.macports.org/install.php Make sure you get the Snow Leopard one. After MacPorts is installed, go to Applications > Utilities > Terminal and run the following command: sudo port selfupdate Then run the following command, which may take like an hour to compile: sudo port install clang-3.3 -analyzer -python27 Then run the following command, which may also take like an hour to compile: sudo port install libcxx +universal configure.compiler=macports-clang-3.3 After you've done all this, Blackmagic 2.2.2 will open properly again (and congratulations on your determination and patience).
