Measuring&Improving Drive Performance

The document summarizes techniques for measuring and improving drive performance, including average access time, data transfer rate, disk optimization, defragmentation, and file compression. It discusses how defragmentation consolidates file fragments to improve performance and how compression reduces file sizes to increase disk capacity. The overall goal is to optimize disks and enhance computer performance.

Average access time Data transfer rate Optimizing Disk Performance Defragmentation File Compression
3

Average access time

Also known as seek time Measured in milliseconds Depends on two factors RPM Time to access a track Hard drive between 6 and 12 ms CD between 80 and 800 ms
4

Data transfer rate

How fast data can be read or write Measured in Bps or bps Hard drive ranges from 15 to 160 MBps CD ROMS ranges 300 kbps900kbps Floppy disks transfer at 45 KBps

Disk optimization
Clean up unnecessary files Delete temp files Uninstall unused programs Delete obsolete data files Files should be cleaned weekly
7

Scan a disk for errors

Disks should be scanned monthly Find and fix the error

Defragment puts the

fragments together. Disks should be defragged monthly.

10
