1. RE: Disk Drive Performance Test
you can write a fairly large file(say 800K), read it back, and time both
actions, divide by the size of the file in bytes and voila! you've got
your trasnfer rate plus OS overhead

Or the error responce time if it's a 360K or 720K floppy.
Norton had a great system performance tester, back before Windoze 3.1. It
tested *everything* on a dos box, and showed you where programs loaded,
did memory dumps, who had what interrupts, etc..
