Hard disks are used as recording media for video signals. They are designed for computer storage, however, there are some problems of recording video signal to hard disk. We are developping video hard disk system that performs effecient recording/playback, with maintaining continuity for video applications. Hard disk evaluation tool for video application is necessary for accomplishing video hard disk system, because evaluation of hard disk performance by using conventional benchmark test cannot be done throughly. In this paper, we reports that we are able to develop evaluation tool capable of evaluating hard disk performance precisely for video applications and capable of aiding to design the system.
