AIDA64
AIDA64 Extreme Edition is a streamlined Windows diagnostic and benchmarking software for home users. AIDA64 Extreme Edition provides a wide range of features to assist in overclocking, hardware error diagnosis, stress testing, and sensor monitoring. It has unique capabilities to assess the performance of the processor, system memory, and disk drives. AIDA64 is compatible with all current 32-bit and 64-bit Microsoft Windows operating systems, including Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
Taking a look at SATA III performance, through use of a SSD, we see that the Z77-D3H falls just out of line with the other boards we tested with. When overclocked, the SATA speeds seem to be boosted slightly, but still below the other boards, running at stock. An odd result, but testing multiple times revealed the same results.
