 SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility. It should provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software.

SiSoftware Sandra works along the lines of other Windows utilities, however it tries to go beyond them and show you more of what's really going on. Giving the user the ability to draw comparisons at both a high and low-level. You can get information about the CPU, chipset, video adapter, ports, printers, sound card, memory, network, Windows internals, AGP, ODBC Connections, USB2, 1394/Firewire, etc.

SiSoftware Sandra Changelog:
Today Sandra 2011 got a minor update, the SP4c, that includes the folowing improvements and bugfixes:
- Memory bus speed may have been detected incorrectly if Sandra & BIOS diverged: pre-SP4 Sandra over-rode BIOS, in SP4 BIOS over-rides Sandra. We restored previous behaviour;
- GUI: Paint all graphs back-to-front, i.e. current results (red) are painted last, i.e. over the reference results. This ensures you always see the current result. Previously the reference results could obscure it.


- Improved I/O in Physical Disks & File Systems Benchmarks: higher queue depth based on system thread availability (2-64). This helps SSD and RAID systems we tested score ~5-8% better. HDD performance does not change significantly. With Options you can disable overlapped/async I/O, i.e. use synchro…nous I/O (no queue);
- Update: AMD STREAM 2.5 for GPGPU;
- Tested Intel "Ivy Bridge" & "Sandy Bridge-Ex" support & (preliminary) optimisations: previous versions were not tested on actual silicon so a few things had to be fixed;
