Benchmarking Software

Currently looking for computer benchmarking software... I want to verify some transfer rates on my various systems, CPU performance, memory performance (don't care about graphical performance since I'm mostly checking servers).

PCMark2002 - Produced by FutureMark, they also make a benchmark program to test laptop performance and battery life, 3D video performance, and a benchmark designed to test simulated performance of business software. There is a limited edition that you can download, a registered version that is US$10, and the Pro version is US$40.

Dr. Hardware 2003 - More of a system information program, diagnostics, plus benchmarking. Haven't really looked at this yet.

SysOpt.com Benchmarking Database - not explored yet.

Performance Test - Has a benchmark utility, plus a burn-in test (seperate) available. Not really explored yet.
