dbench
Benchmark Kubernetes persistent disk volumes with fio: Read/write IOPS, bandwidth MB/s and latency (by leeliu)
This is my go-to solution every time. https://rook.io/
Another option is using a local path CSI provider. There are a lot of options, I usually use the rancher one: https://github.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner However, this will give you the least amount of functionality, for example your pods will only be able to be scheduled on a specific node and there is no replication.
Perhaps this might be true for i3.2xlarge or larger machines, but for smaller VMs these were the results I got. My setup was 3 masters - 6 workers (2vCPUs - 4GBs RAM). You can try it yourself with dbench and see what you get.
