Important links in operating system optimization

It can be said that almost all computers have been a certain automatic, manual optimization, many individual users have also installed some software to optimize the hardware. And in many media also published such optimization articles, the author also published some. However, some of the author's friends and users of the system is no longer interested in optimization-many are said optimization before and after the same, the speed and stability of the improvement has no effect! Is that really true? In the sense of the author the answer is yes ...

However, in these months, the author of the hardware and operating system of the working principle of a deeper layer of research and learning, land continued to find that there are many important aspects of optimization has been overlooked. After repeated practice comparison, it is found that these links to optimize the effect of this decisive role! Summed up there are generally nine links, the following author on one by one.

A reasonable use of hard disk

What is the reasonable use of hard disk? First we need to understand the physical structure of the hard disk disc. The partition and format of the hard disk is based on the sector, and a partition is composed of several sectors. What is a sector? We all know that disks rotate at work, the information it stores is recorded in a series of concentric circles on its surface, each concentric circle is called a track, in Fig. 1 We can see the distribution of track and sector (of course, this is just a schematic, the object is much more dense than the picture!). , many friends think that the red "big" is a sector, but the right thing to know is that the small piece of yellow is a sector. The size of a sector is 512 bytes, an integral ring is a track, and a track has several sectors, so we are not difficult to see, the more on the outside of a single sector on the track, the larger the volume, in other words is its density smaller, because the hard drive is mechanical transmission, so the head of its search, read, write faster, The distribution of the partition is also from the outer ring to the inner circle, so the C disk relative to the D disk, etc., which is why we feel C disk than D, E and other partitions faster than the reason.

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

How to use the divided area is the most critical:

1, the operating system installed on the C disk and the Mwie, Foxmail, ICQ, QQ, http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/12592.html ">flashget, Super Rabbit, 6186." HTML "> Player software, as well as some graphic software and other commonly used small software is also installed on the C disk. If you use Microsoft's large software, such as Office, you should also install it on the C disk. Of course, because we do not use all of these features, so to customize the installation of those useful parts to save C disk space! Then set the virtual memory on D disk (just a temporary ^_^) and use the system's own Disk Defragmenter to organize the C disk.

2, the use of "micro-Xiao Registry optimization master" such as system modification software to "My Documents", "Internet buffering", Internet History "," Favorites "and so on often have to write, delete the operation of the folder set to D disk to try to avoid other partitions to create disk fragmentation and reduce hard disk performance!

3, all kinds of application software installation to E disk, as for the game can be installed in F disk, G disk used to store audio and video files.
