-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 As to the hard drive, drop by www.storagereview.com and read up on IOMeter by Intel. It's a pretty good stress test for hard drives. I always use it to test mine.

I found that Windows2k has one in the resource kit. It stresses shared memory and CPU. I also wanted something that would stress disk read and write. Our original problem was our backplane on our Dell server.

The WinBench suite was a benchmarking suite that tests how fast your given configuration can complete a pre-designed set of tasks. It can then compare those results to other configuration. There is no promise that it will max your CPU's at all. Theoretically you could have more CPU power then the program could tap. If you use some simulator or other program that is designed to max the CPU load or use all the free CPU cycles available, then you stress your CPU.

A few years ago I bought a suit of software testing tools from Ziff-Davis. WinBench, WinStone...etc. These were suppose to be the tools that they tested their hardware reviews on.
