BootRacer automatically tests how long Windows takes to start and saves the results to a history database. You can analyse it and compare boot times when you install a new program. The great thing about BootRacer is, that it gives a realistic measurement of the time it takes to get to the Windows desktop. The user and password entry is not counted in the results.
This test is performed by installing a fresh copy of Windows 7 64bit and BootRacer onto the drive. The system is then run through 10 cold boot cycles where the entire system is powered off, this simulates the best effect and prevents any memory caching and fast-reboots. Using a fresh installation further aids in consistent results, as it removes any drivers and software that otherwise might skew the results from one drive to another.
The Toshiba MQ01ABD100H was fast to sort the files. On the second boot it had done most of the work and was down by 2 seconds. During this 10 boot-cycle test, it was the third test that was the best with just 17.126 seconds. The boot times were split into 11 seconds for booting and 6 seconds for the desktop to load.
