madeinheaven Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 [Free] Download O&O SpeedCheck 2.0.45.0Defragmentation of your system Hard disk on regular basis is essential to keep your system run smooth, because fragmentation of data may lead to slow down your PC. Certainly defragging your hard disk can speed up your system, as it moves all files in sequence,but along with speed improvement there is also one draw back lies in the process as we don’t know when to do defragmentation, unnecessary defragmentation may become disaster and can kill your Hard disk.So we need a tool to tell when it is time do defragmentation and this free software O&O SpeedCheck is exactly designed for that purpose which helps you to decide whether there will be any benefits on defragmenting your hard drive.O&O SpeedCheck is standalone program requires no installation and runs from wherever it’s situated.With O&O SpeedCheck you can simulate your Windows system in a fragmented and defragmented state.No data is written in the simulation, it simply reads test data from the hard disk. After completion of the simulation you will be shown a comparison of the two test times, and the possible increase in speed available to you. You can see just how much your PC could be accelerated by regular and thorough defragmentation.The process is split into two phases: simulated reading of files that are fragmented, and simulated reading of the same files had they been defragmented. No real files are used for the reading. Files are read continuously one after the other on a hard disk level from the start of partition C:.During the reading process of fragmented files, the test files are opened and read operations are carried out according to the number of fragments the files are split into. This simulates how the operating system reads fragmented files. The reading process of the defragmented files is done in one read operation and loaded into the memory.Download: O&O SpeedCheck 2.0.45.0Source: techno360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0nyB Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Thanks for the share! :) Pretty interesting software, I must say... :think:EDIT: On Windows 7 32Bit, 28,05% improvement on my laptop, clean install today, haven't defragmented HDD yet, :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxhedroom Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Hmm...wonder what the results would be for an ssd based system... :evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0nyB Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Hmm...wonder what the results would be for an ssd based system... :evil:I can't see a reason to find that out... There is no need to defrag SSD drives, because it doesn't have the physical parts HDDs have, only logical sectors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rnsoni Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 The windows system tool for defragmentation says "no need". This tool shows that the speed will increase by more than 90 %. It seems that increase in speed relates to the defragmented portion of data i.e. if the defragmented portion is fragmented the the speed in reading such portion increases. The real increase in speed would depend upon the extent of defragmented portion on the hard disc.I feel that this tool may not be giving the overall effective increase in speed. Subsequent to the completion of this program , one gets a thirty day offer of a "defrag" program by O& O.In any case thanks for your post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
