testing hardrives and ram

i use a simular idea. i got a usb connected wall wart powered hard drive adapter and it can handle all types of hard drives. i do use towers for ram though.

i preffer live linux distros for my testing so nothing nasty can spread and most very tiny distros can handle that job easily such as dsl or puppy that a light enough to run on early 90s computers.



for testing cards i use *buntu based live disks as it has better support for them than most linux and most of all community members are willing to custom modify drivers to work if you cant get them.
