I searched for disk speed c#[^] and this was the first link - Getting Hard Disk Speed using C#[^]. I hope that helps!

And please do a search before you ask. That's going to save you a lot of time.

Yes I have searched and found this solution.But This link does not provide a solution for disk speed.It Gives other properties of disk but not speed.

Did you check the MSDN link? Does it have a property or method to find disk speed?
If not, I would guess it's not possible.
