Pick fio if…
fio suits people who need to define and run storage I/O workloads without writing a separate test program for each one. Its client/server mode may be useful when jobs need to run on remote hosts.
Pick Modern FS Benchmark if…
Modern FS Benchmark suits Linux users who want to compare filesystem behavior across a range of workloads. It is also suited to operators with dedicated self-hosted GitHub Actions runners, provided they account for destructive real-device runs.
