  • DNS Benchmark v2 is Finished and Available!
    Guest:
    That's right. It took an entire year, but the result far more accurate and feature laden than we originally planned. The world now has a universal, multi-protocol, super-accurate, DNS resolver performance-measuring tool. This major second version is not free. But the deal is, purchase it once for $9.95 and you own it — and it's entire future — without ever being asked to pay anything more. For an overview list of features and more, please see The DNS Benchmark page at GRC. If you decide to make it your own, thanks in advance. It's a piece of work I'm proud to offer for sale. And if you should have any questions, many of the people who have been using and testing it throughout the past year often hang out here.
    /Steve.

  • BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware

    To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.

    GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.

    The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.

    You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.

The USB boot drive did not show up initially. I had to enable legacy mode in the bios first. No biggy, it worked great after that change.
Will there be EFI boot support in the future?

Yes! The UEFI/EFI alternative to the BIOS didn't even exist in 2004 when SpinRite 6.0 was released. So it was never an issue then. And it hasn't really been an issue until much more recently. But it is today. So, due to the clear need for SpinRite to support UEFI booting from here on, SpinRite's development Roadmap was resequenced to move UEFI support for USB and NVMe. We wish it was possible to do everything at once, since older BIOS-based systems would rather have native USB and NVMe support. But with SpinRite v6.1, those older BIOS-based systems will be getting a huge boost with SpinRite's native IDE/SATA/AHCI support. So we then want to make that available to all UEFI systems, after which all systems will be able to benefit from all further advances, which will be to immediately work on adding native USB and NVMe support.
