Set it up as a log that runs for a day or more, unless you want to sit and stare at perfmon. Besides you need to collect data for a longer period of time to determine any trends

In that article it states &quot;Next, select PhysicalDisk from the Performance Object dropdown list&quot;<br />

Just an aside as it looks like the above covers yourperfmon problem...<br />
<br />
Don't forget to run it from a remote workstation or you'll create extra I/O on the box you're testing, optimum queue length is 2 per disk in an array, so a queue of 10 for a 5 drive array.

I would like to use Windows Perf Montitor to log the performance of a hard disk array on my machine. I am specifically looking to check the average disk que length on the array. I tried going in to set it up, even tried reading the windows page on how to do it but am having no luck. Can anyone help with this?<br />
Thanks,<br />

Using Windows Performance Monitor to check Hard Disk Performance

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
