Prime 95. I don't know what you'd use to check the HDD or GPU/IGP.

This should be good for HDD.

Only other suggestion I could think of would be Everest, but that's monitoring/benchmarking really...

You can run the Apple hardware test by restarting and holding "D" (I think) in Leopard.
Or TechTool Deluxe if you have AppleCare.

That's all I know
