What is best to do to test a custom circuit with large amount of data?

Hi everyone, I have implemented a electron-beam data decompression circuit in verilog-hdl. I need to run it and benchmark it with large amount of data (over 200 mega-bytes). I don't have any no...

I forgot the mention that my electron-beam data decompression circuit has to run at 200 MHz. So the input data rate into the decompression circuit is 200 Mega-bit per second. I am not sure if the Altera University Program SD-Card control can supply that kind of data rate. Anyway, I need to use some kind of file system, because I have like over 9000 benchmark files. Thus I need to use Nios II processor.
