I am a newbie to TrueNAS, I hope you can give me some suggestions.
My TrueNAS uses 4 Seagate 1TB hard drives to form Stripe. I want to test the built-in speed of the NAS through ssh on windows. What are its commands? Hope to get help, thank you very much!

When you say ssh through windows do you mean SSH from windows to Freenas? Alternatively you can get to the shell by going to the web UI and going to the shell from there (it should be on the bottom left).

Testing performance, I assume you are just wanting to test read/write speed on the pool? 4K?

iozone -a

iozone is built into freenas and in the default path. iozone -a will run the full test suite but you probably want to run a subset so take a look at the manpage.

Thank you for your help. I found Shell in the WEB UI of TrueNAS. I want to test the read and write speed of the pool. How do I do this?

Did you even read the link in the response provided above by @mstang1988 ? I'm probably in a bad mood but try not to be lazy and read what people have provided you. Also I'd recommend that you read the TrueNAS User Guide from cover to cover two times, and I say two times because the second time you will pick up on key things you should be aware of. It helps.
