I can run the Unit testing test for 64-bit on 2008R2, 2012 and 2012R2

These are the unit tests I'll run:
-          1 hour of data integrity testing using sdstress (Microsoft Tool)
-          1 hour of heavy stress testing using IOMETER covering, at least, 512B, 4KB and 128KB ranging from 1 OIO to 64 OIO both sequential and random
-          Quick and slow format of both MBR and GPT partitioning
-          Microsoft SCSI Compliance, no failures except (warnings OK)

Hello,

In order to officially release the OFA reference driver, there are some tests that need to be run. I'm asking for volunteers for run the following tests:


*         WHQL/WHCK Certification Tests (no submission to MS required... just need test results)

*         Normal Unit Testing Test Suite

The only requirements for devices on which to run the above tests is that the NVMe SSD be 1.2 compliant. As additional info, here is a list of features that we've added since our last release. Please review and sanity check my list.

Recent patches include

*         Performance improvement & robustness

*         NVMe Spec rev 1.2 feature compliant

*         Supports MS Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Server 2012 R2, 2012 and 2008 R2

*         Supports both 32 & 64-bit

*         What is new since last release:

o   Namespace Management (Create, Delete, Attach, Detach)

o   EOL Read Only Support

o   Win 8.1 Timers

o   Surprise Removal Support in IOCTL Path

o   Disk Initialization Performance Optimization

o   Storage Request Block Support

o   StorPort Performance Options

o   StorPort DPC Redirection

o   Misc. Bug Fixes

o   Security Send/Receive with Zero Data Length

o   SNTI updates for SCSI to NVMe Translation

Thanks...
Ray
