i'm wondering too and look forward to any thread responses. this is potentially a great environment for determining if the waters have been tested with software downloads.

imo, sandra and nsw together are not overkill... based on what i just read on the zdnet summary. sandra seems more extensive with its battery of tests. but nsw fixes a lot of what it finds.

so the two would probably complement one another nicely.

i'm now beginning to lean towards trying it! <g3>

I used it a few years back and found it to be a good diagnostic tool with limitations placed on the free version.

To do a meaningful test one probably needs to upgrade to the pay version.

That may have changed since I last used it.
