S.M.A.R.T telemetry log interpretation, sector health ratings.

The memory benchmark has been recompiled to avoid false positives from Windows Virtualization-Based Security (VBS). In previous versions, VBS could artificially lower memory latency scores by 15-20%. Version 24.4.0 detects if VBS is active and adjusts the test methodology to provide "Real-World" latency figures rather than raw hardware-blocked numbers. | Feature / Aspect | Dr

Dr. Hardware stands out by bypassing standard Windows APIs to query hardware directly, offering a "no-nonsense" look at your system's internals: Deep Hardware Detection
