With advances in technology, SSD has started to replace traditional HDD hard drives in some high-end models and even notebooks since last year. SSD provides strong performance and stability compared to HDD. So what improvements have been made to SSD support as Microsoft's latest Windows 7 system? Listen to Microsoft Engineering 7 explanation!
In Windows 7, we keep the support of SSD in mind. As a result, Windows 7 supports SSDs by default, and users do not need to make any adjustments.
Random reads: Perfect performance
On random reads, SSDs are really fast, and a little bit better SSD speeds can be even 100 times times faster than traditional HDD drives.
Sequential reads and writes: It's great, too.
Today, the mainstream SSD can be up to MB/s in sequential read speed, about twice times as much as 7200 HDD. 、
Random Read/erase: Obvious advantages
I/O speeds are much faster than traditional HDD, both in testing and in practical applications.
Windows 7 with SSD
As mentioned above, today's SSD is quite good at the write/erase speed. and Windows 7 will certainly do well on these SSD because we have done a lot of optimization to reduce the number of reads/erases, which will definitely improve the performance of Windows 7 and SSD, and this is good news for traditional HDD hard drives.
On SSDs, Windows 7 automatically disables disk defragmentation, and features such as disk defragmentation are less effective due to the excellent random read/write performance of SSD.
In addition, features such as SuperFetch and ReadyBoost will be canceled, and with SSD's outstanding performance, these features are already redundant.
