Tips for testing a x31

#1 Post by toronto » Sun Apr 27, 2008 4:13 pm

I'm going to be puchasing a x31 in the near future and was wondering if anyone could recommend some good programs (preferably opensource or free) to test various components of the computer, e.g. RAM, HDD, etc.

I generally trust sellers, but don't want to discover issues after the purcase! Thanks!

You can download Hitachi HD fitness test too, to test your HD. I've used it before and it is pretty good.

TuneUp Utilities is OK too, a bit like a free Norton alternative.
T42 (14"/250GB/1.5GB; NL; with minidock); R51 (15" flexview/40GB/1 GB). X31 (12"/320GB/1GB); T42 (14"/60GB/1GB; FR)
