KONA System Test KONA System Test is a utility for measuring system performance with AJA KONA Video

Capture cards. The application includes disk drive speed tests and video data copy (DMA)

speeds. The disk speed tests differ from standard disk I/O performance applications in

that they specifically test the system under conditions typically encountered with video

capture, playback, and editing.

NOTE: Most of the disk performance tests are generic and don’t require an AJA KONA Video

Capture card. The DMA performance tests do require a KONA card and AJA KONA Driver

software to operate.

We suggest the best test is to fill your storage disk to 80% and then test capture at the

highest data rate you will use.

DataRate Calculator This software application calculates data rates and storage requirements for a given

video size, format, and frame rate. It's great for both KONA and Io users as a resource for

configuring systems and determining storage requirements.
