Breaking through five Win8s one by one will hurt the computer hard drive rumors

Once upon a time, there was a rumor circulating on the Internet that Win8 would hurt the hard drive. Although it is a rumor, the argument that Win8 will hurt the hard disk is more and more horrible. This time, Microsoft personally went out and sorted out the five major rumors about Win8 that would damage the hard disk in the forum and broke them one by one.

Strongly inserted, since the release of Win8 preview, Xiaobian has been using Win8 system at work. There have been no cases where the hard disk has gone wrong.

The following are Microsoft's 5 answers to rumors

1. Windows 8 Defender

Windows 8 Defender will appear on Windows 8 RP when it causes a computer card The reason for the high utilization of the hard disk and the hard disk is that the user will perform a scan every time the user operates the Defender, including opening a folder and scanning it once. For this reason, the user will complain about the problem of the card on the network.

But there is no such problem in Windows 8 RTM. (The rumors on the network are not trusted.)

2, Hybrid Boot Quick Start Service

It is about the current Windows 8 mixed sleep technology that leads to the utilization of hard disk read and write, now no matter what computer or When the hard disk is in a state of sleep, there will be a time when the hard disk is still being read and written. The forum says that those conditions are normal, so the statement about such a hard disk is not valid.

3, Superfetch service

Superfetch technology has been used since Vista, has been extended to Windows 7 and Windows 8, there is no statement about the damage to the hard disk.

Superfetch technology records the usage status of this app on the hard disk after the user starts an app. When the app is launched again next time, it will directly read the last saved state, thus improving The speed of running, this will definitely increase the utilization of the hard disk.

4, Windows 8 automatic disk cleaning

is to facilitate the user's hard disk management, after our tests did not find the problem of hard disk damage.

5, from HDD to SSD

The forum said that switching to SSD will not cause damage to the hard disk, so it is unreasonable to say.

SSD is much faster than HDD reading and writing, so the SSD read and write speed will be faster than HDD regardless of the system, so the hard drive utilization will not show the outstanding, actual The upper SSD and HDD utilization are the same, just the difference in speed.
