Everest Test / Benchmarking software

I haven't used this utility in awhile and see it has been discontinued and now is called AIDA64

lavalys.com

I often used Everest to created an extremely detailed breakdown on my computers.

I recommend downloading the trial version maybe once a year and let it detail your machine and save the file for future reference.

I tried it and found it even provided the hard drive platter information I was asking about to the manufacturer who wouldn't provide it.

Here is one of my external drives I tested for reference:
