Ok, thanks. Wonder what gives as this happens on both of my systems.

This should work while I decide on what domain name to choose.

Thanks! And can't wait to see your site :clap:
Hi Anvil! Very useful program you have written here! ;)
I was wondering, is there any possibility for this program to run an endurance test on removable devices?
(The reason I ask is because the CF card I am going to test even though it's connected to IDE won't set itself to Fixed disk, and it does not seem to support it either.)
Takk! ^^
I have disabled removable devices but I'll have a look at it.
I might need some details on how the device identifies in "WMI".
The workload is probably not ideeal for such a device, it might be interesting testing CF or other typical memory cards for DSLR's.
Great!
Whenever you have time to look at it, just let me know and I will access the WMI ;)
thank you for the App and thank you for taking the time to develop it.
love the level of detail it provides.
Thanks!
There is more to be included, just need some time to get them finished.
just wondering the difference in choosing different compression levels for the benchmark.
what would be the optimal test size to run. i have been doing the 1gb test size.
It depends on the controller on the SSD.
If you've got a "normal" SSD controller w/o compression then you can run any compression ratio you like.
There might be a very small performance penalty as generating random data can have a tiny impact on the score but in general the scores should be very close if not identical.
If you are running an SSD that utilizes compression (SandForce based) then you should go by 46% or more for the most realistic/true-to-life scores.
(it really depends a lot on your data)

Excellent application.
I only wonder why it is showing my motherboard as Socket 423, when it is Socket 1366 (x58)?
Ok i tried one of the tests at 46% compression.Quote:

The information displayed is retrieved using WMI (Windows Metrics) and it means that it's querying the hardware and the hardware is obviously not behaving for some reason. Could simply be that the MB is reporting the wrong info?Quote:

I am not sure about the hardware not behaving; screenshot form AIDA64:

Still only 10 minutes of enterprise endurance testing :shakes: Can't wait to be able to stress my SSD overnight! :DQuote:

You should be able to go more than 10 minutes though, a few hours should be possible, I'll check tomorrow.
Every once in a while, during a benching run, I get a seemingly random error.
Today I got I/O Error 145 in a dialog box which disappeared shortly after. The toolbar at the top migrated to the right side of the ASU window, and after a few seconds the bench continued.
I've had that report earlier, will check...

I've had it happen several times, not sure why. The error dialog disappeared before I could get the capture.
@Anvil,
Thank you for continuing development of this application.
I am still getting the wrong socket listed, however.

It is not a big deal to me, but I thought you might like to know.
The socket etc is retrieved using Windows Management Instrumentation so there isn't much I can do about it.
I could disable displaying the socket as it's the one value that has been wrong a few times, not many though.
I believe it must be some specific incompatibility unique to my system that the benchmark is having trouble with, since every other application I have used that identifies the motherboard does so correctly.Quote:

Thanks again.
Anvil when are you going to finalize the software and sell it? I will be the first in line to buy it. What do you think of this result?
