Windows 7 and SSD (Solid State Drive)

With the advancement of technology, since last year, SSD solid state drives have begun to replace traditional HDD hard drives in some high-end models and even notebooks. Compared to HDD, SSD brings great performance and stability. So, as Microsoft's latest Windows 7 system, what improvements have been made to SSD support? Listen to the explanation of Microsoft Engineering 7!

In Windows 7, we have kept our support for SSD in mind. . Therefore, Windows 7 supports SSD by default, and users do not need to make any adjustments.

Random reading: perfect performance

SSD is really fast on random reading, and the slightly better SSD speed can be more than 100 times faster than traditional HDD hard disk.

Sequential reads and writes: Also great

Today, mainstream SSDs can achieve 200 MB/s in sequential read speeds, about twice the HDD of 7200 rpm. ,

Random Read/Erase: The advantages are obvious

I/O speed is much faster than traditional HDD in both testing and practical applications.

Windows 7 and SSD

As mentioned above, today's SSDs are quite good at write/erase speeds. And Windows 7 will definitely perform well on these SSDs, because we have made a lot of optimizations to reduce the number of read/erase times, which will undoubtedly greatly improve the performance of Windows 7 and SSD, and at the same time, the move is traditional. HDD hard drives are also good news.

On SSD, Windows 7 will automatically disable disk defragmentation. Due to the excellent random read/write performance of SSD, features like disk defragmentation have been of little use.

In addition, features like Superfetch and ReadyBoost will be removed, and with the outstanding performance of SSDs, these features are already superfluous.
