Performance test procedure

Initialize the Card for testing:
- Format the Card
- Open the file "Test.txt"
- Prewrite 4MB of file data with 0x55
- Close and Delete the file
Write performance test:
- Open the file "Test.txt"
Start the measurement timer
- Write 4MB of data in 4KB blocks
Stop the measurement timer
- Close the file
Read performance test:
- Open the file "Test.txt"
Start the measurement timer
- Read 4MB of data in 4KB blocks
Stop the measurement timer
- Close the file
Test validity check:
- Open the file "Test.txt"
- Verify 4MB of data in 4KB blocks
- Close and Delete the file
