DNS servers are the one who connect your computer to the url which you type in to your browser. The DNS servers assigned by the ISP usually have faster response times, but may be slow in the lookup due to high load or due to bad performing servers….

This tool helps you to test which is the best DNS server for you….The tool is knows as DNSBench.

DNS Bench performs a test on predefined nameservers and of-course, you can supply the DNS servers of your choice to be tested.

DNS Bench comprehensively tests all the DNS server and generates a report which can be copied onto clipboard, which can be analyzed later.

We liked the way it tested the DNS servers for reliability and the response time of the servers.

All we can do is recommend this software to you…..DOWNLOAD it for FREE!

In our case too the ISP’s nameservers were fast but were low on caching so we switched onto Google’s DNS Servers.

Primary DNS : 8.8.8.8

Alt. DNS          : 8.8.4.4

If you have bought an USB flash / thumb drive, then a word of Caution…..because many sellers on popular sites on eBay are offering its users Fake / Counterfeit drives in disguise of Good Brands like Sony, Corsair, Kingston etc.

Many drives are coming out of china which look just like the Originals but are unreliable, sometimes contain spyware / keyloggers or show incorrect memory capacity.

If you have a drive which shows incorrect capacity, opt for an replacement right away and do not store any confidential or private data on the flash drive.

If you are looking for a new USB Flash drive / Memory Card etc. then you *must* buy from an authorised seller. Generally a list of authorised sellers is available on the manufacturers website.
