Don't know it this is what you need;


http://www1.zdnet.com/zdbop/netbench/netbench.html

It's a benchmark for fileservers which is used by at leased several german 
"pc-pro-magazines". It's for Windows. Several Clients are simulating 
"officelike"-access to a fileserver. So you can compare several servers, 
and if you have access to, your server to tested servers eg at 
http://www.zdnet.de

It's freeware.
