Hi, just thought I’d pass this along. 
If you’ve ever been curious to how fast your hard drive random access/read access ect. is, I found this benchmark tool. You may find this interesting if you have more than one hd installed (as I do) to see which is the faster drive.
It’s free to use (personal use)
NOTE: On vista 64bit after install I had to run in compatability mode.

I like System Explorer as it has tabs for applications autorun on startup, system add-ons, drivers and services but Process Explorer has nice process color grouping.
I do not let them replace Task Manager though.

We picked the same program and for the same reasons.

Dropbox 0.7.32 is a useful tool that will enable you to instantly store your files online and share them.
It can also synchronize the files from your offline directories and online storage.
Here are some key features of “Dropbox”:
Synchronization:
· Once installed, any file you drop into your Dropbox folder will synchronize and be available
on any other computer you’ve installed Dropbox on, as well as from the web.
Also, any changes you make to files in your Dropbox will sync to your other computers, instantly.
Backup:
· Let’s say you accidentally delete that 8 page report that you were supposed to have for a meeting tomorrow.
A handy Dropbox feature is the ability to undelete files or pull up any previous versions of it.
Sharing:
· You can also share files and folders with whomever you choose, whether it be music with buddies,
docs with colleagues or photos with grandma, even if they’re not Dropbox users.
Speed:
· We obsess over speed, and it shows. Dropbox is very smart about the way it handles files.
For example, if you make a change to a huge file, dropbox will only update the piece of the file that changed.
Security:
· All files are transported over SSL and encrypted using AES-256 (banks use this too).
