Hi everyone!


I'm trying to gather a library of software that can help me diagnose problems in a computer's overall hardware (as well as information about the installed hardware). So far, iv'e collected the following:


1. CrystalDiskInfo
2. HDTune
3. Hard Disk Sentinel
4. AIDA64
5. Speccy
6. SpeedFan
7. Core Temp
8. CPUz
9. HDD Regenerator
10. SSDLife
11. Intel SSD Toolbox
12. Passmark Perfomance Test


Could anyone help inform me of any other, useful software?
 
The PassMark company also offers software for external hardware testing to identify issues with computers, although it tends to be more expensive. Here are some options:
1. USB2 or USB3 version Loopback Plugs.
2. Inline PSU Tester.

Alternatively, consider these methods (for experience only):
1. Backplane Probe with DMM (Digital Multimeter) onto the connector, where you can monitor voltages while the computer is powered on.
Note: NIST certification isn’t necessary.
2. USB Jump Drive for Identifying Bad USB Ports.
