The nine secrets that make the hard disk faster and the system more stable

Make the hard disk faster and make the system more stable. There are nine links in summary, and the following will come one by one.

First, use the hard disk

What is the reasonable use of the hard disk? First we need to understand the physical structure of the hard disk. A partitioned and formatted hard disk is based on a sector, and a partition is composed of a number of sectors. So what is a sector? We all know that the disk is rotating at work. The information it stores is recorded on its surface in a series of concentric circles. Each concentric circle is called a track. In Figure 1, we can See the distribution of tracks and sectors (of course, this is just a schematic, the physical is much more dense than the picture!), many friends think that the red "big" is a sector, but the correct understanding should The small piece that is yellow is a sector. A sector has a size of 512 bytes, a whole ring is a track, and there are several sectors on a track, so it is easy to see that the larger the sector on the outer track, the larger the volume. The words are the lower the density, because the hard disk is mechanical transmission, so the speed of the search, read and write speed of the magnetic head is faster, the distribution of the partition is also from the outer ring to the inner ring, so the C disk is relative to the D disk. Outside, this is why we feel that the C drive is faster than the D, E and other partitions.

Understand the above knowledge, we can use the hard disk reasonably! Take a new hard disk with a capacity of 60GB as an example: divide the C drive into 3 to 5GB (depending on the operating system), D disk is adjusted to 1GB, E disk is set to 10GB, save the need to set it (can be divided into F and G disk) — — has no effect on system speed.

After using the area, how to use it is the most important:

1. Install the operating system on the C drive and put MwIE, Foxmail, ICQ, QQ, FlashGet, Super Rabbit, Player Software and some common small software such as viewing software are also installed on the C drive. If you use Microsoft's large software such as Office, you should also install it on the C drive. Of course, since we don't use all of the features, we have to customize the useful parts to save the C drive space! Then set the virtual memory to the D drive (just temporary ^_^) and then use the system itself. The disk defragmenter with the defragmentation of the C drive.

2, use the system modification software such as "micro-acquisition registry optimization master", "My Documents", "Internet buffer", "Online history", "ldquo;" Favorites & rdquo; and other folders that are often required to write and delete operations are set to the D drive to minimize disk fragmentation and reduce hard disk performance!

3. Install various application software to the E drive. As for the game can be installed in the F drive, the G drive is used to store audio and video files.

4, defragmentation of the C drive, and then set the virtual memory to the C drive after the second big step!

Second, the virtual memory settings < Br>

Setting virtual memory to a fixed value is already a common "truth", and it is quite correct, but most people set it to a non-system partition other than the C drive. And its value is mostly 2 to 3 times of physical memory. Most people think that the larger the value, the better the performance of the system and the faster it runs! But this is not the case, because the system relies on virtual memory —— if the virtual memory is large, the system will have a lot of free space in the physical memory. Space is used to start using virtual memory, but those that are not used are still stuck in physical memory, which will inevitably lead to memory performance degradation!

Then I started from 32MB memory to 512MB As far as memory is concerned, I found that the above mentioned facts are very correct. The virtual memory should be set to 0 to 1.5 times of physical memory (how much is 0? Is it disabled! ^_^), and the larger the physical memory is, the multiple It should be smaller rather than bigger. When the physical memory is equal to or greater than 512MB, most PCs can disable virtual memory, and the memory performance is the highest! ^_^

As for your virtual memory, how big is it, you I have to give it a try, because this is directly related to the number and size of the resident memory software and the software you usually run, so I can not give the recommended value. You can set it to be the same as the physical memory before running several large software. If there is no abnormality, you can set it to half of the physical memory before running the large software. If an exception occurs. You have to increase the value of virtual memory appropriately! And so on, when you find the best value, just set this value to the C drive and it will be OK! :)

Note: If you use For Windows ME and the following operating systems, you can download “MagnaRAM 97” to optimize physical memory and virtual memory, which is better! In addition, I recommend that you do not use software called optimization and memory. Previous page12Next page Total 2 pages
