VDT - Visual Disk Test : performs I/O tests on files, partitions, and/or disks with visual feedback/follow-up, offering flexible test area selection by size, location, percent, or combinations thereof, plus test duration control by time or size.

...A multiple core cpu, 8 GB ram, and a large capacity hard drive are suggested.

...It includes the most efficient tree-based sorting algorithm that is possible and shows that finding a new prime can be done by sorting the differences between the previous primes in the right way. Unfortunately it has turned out that going this way is even more slowly than trying to find primes by brute force. So it can only be used as a test with heavy load for the sorting algorithm, which can be used for sorting any kind of data. And as already mentioned, it's just the most efficient tree-based sorting algorithm that you can get. But furthermore this way of finding primes interestingly leaves a hard nut to crack for mathematicians: In very rare cases it finds numbers that are not primes. ...

A Disk Scheduling Simulator tool. With an intuitive GUI interface and command line functionality. Built using both VC and VB. Currently supports SSTF,LOOK,CLOOK,SCAN and CSCAN algorithms. Rotational latency is also optionally supported.

This tool is designed to solve generalized pattern matching problem, by which we only find a set of sub-patterns, ignoring the gaps in between the sub-patterns. This tool is extremely fast and also has good tolerance to errors.

Overfoldix is a distribution of Linux designed to boot off of a CD and run in a ramdisk, not requiring a Hard Disk Drive. This linux distro is used to help out in the Folding@Home distributed computing project. This is a \'better\' OS for Folding@Home
