I've used various disk drive speed checks, and Copy ][+ seems to be the best
of them.  This is because it doesn't trash the disk that happens to be in the
disk drive at the time, like Locksmith & Nibbles Away do.  (This is based on
experience, not documentation reading... Copy ][ manuels say to use scratch
disks, but I've never had a problem using regular disks in, say, 50 speed
checks.)
