Hi,
When I use dd to check the read/write performance of my drives I only get the results in bytes and I really prefer it to report in mega/gigabyte.
On my Linux boxes this is standard, it reports like this for example:
[cmd=]dd if=/dev/zero of=foo3 bs=1M count=1000[/cmd]
And on my FreeBSD box it reports like this:
Which is a little harder to read. I couldn't find any options that makes the output in human readable format.
How do I fix this?
Thanks,

Code:
Output: 1048576000 byte (1,0 GB) copied, 26,0484 s, 40,3 MB/s
And on my FreeBSD box it reports like this:
Code:
Output: 1048576000 bytes transferred in 0.300587 secs (3488425586 bytes/sec)
