SSD vs HDD Booting, Multitasking, Updates & Everyday tasks



We compare a typical Solid State Disk (OCZ Agility 60GB) against a high end consumer Hard Disk (Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB) with some tedious everyday tasks. As a product reviewer, Ive quite a lot of software installed, including Windows XP mode, ~100 portable applications in a folder on the SSD and this PC has been in use for almost 4 months since installing the OS. Pause the initial info screens for PC specs, preparation and other info. We compare/show the following: – Windows 7 boot-up – Launching 14 applications – Launching 3 apps in XP Mode – Upgrading OpenOffice 3.1 to 3.2 – Extract ZIP (3914 files/365MB) – Installing 5 Windows Updates – Disk Fragmentation – A Gatso Speed Camera The Hard Disk is a clone of the SSD using the Linux DD_Resuce utility. This Hard Disk was then tweaked by resizing the OS partition to 100GB to assist defragmentation, place data in the fast outer area and reduce seek time. I then carried out a deep optimise with IObit Smart Defrag. No other partitions were added. The tasks were manually carried out by hand (ie no scripts), with a video camera recording bootup & application launches. CamStudio captured the other tests for a better picture, with its temp & output paths pointed to the 2TB data HDD. The Gigabyte EnergySaver feature was disabled. I disabled the Antivirus for the OpenOffice installation and ZIP extraction tests for both drives, as Nod32 is sluggish scanning when writing executable files and the ZIP archive contained some

How Fast is Booting from an SSD [Solid State Drive]?



go.tagjag.com – geeks.pirillo.com – http – I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Booting up using a Samsung SSD drive is stupid fast. I attempted to count how long it takes to boot – and didn’t even make it to two. I’m not kidding! chris.pirillo.com Distributed by Tubemogul.

Stop Errors in Windows XP While Booting


A STOP error is nothing but an eight digit hexadecimal code that appears on the blue screen when Windows faces a serious problem from which it cannot recover. It is generally caused due to hardware or software related issues. One major hazard of a STOP error message is that it does not let the system boot and renders the hard drive data inaccessible. To resolve the problem, you can perform some troubleshooting methods. However, if the problem does not get resolved even after troubleshooting, then re-installing the operating system is required, which leads to data loss. In such situations, you should use a powerful Disk Recovery software to retrieve all your hard drive data.

Picture a situation – One fine day, you try to boot your Windows XP based system and suddenly the system displays a blue screen with any of the following STOP error messages:

Stop: 0x0000000A”

Stop: 0×00000001″

Stop: 000000ED”

STOP: 0x0000009F”

After any of these STOP error greets you, the booting process of the system halts. Even rebooting the system does not help.

What causes a STOP error message?

Many times, a STOP error appears due to newly installed hardware, software or device driver. However, it may also appear due to unexpected system shutdown, power failure, virus infection, system malfunction, and more.

Resolution:

Troubleshooting methods to resolve the issue:

  • The STOP error might be a fluke. To verify, restart the system and check whether it appears again.

  • If you just installed a hardware, program, or a driver, then remove or disable all of them and then reboot your system.

  • If this does not work, then start your system with “Last Known Good Configuration”.

  • Use “System Restore” to undo recent changes.

  • Perform a complete scan of your system using an anti-virus software.

  • Check system’s RAM ( random access memory).

  • Update the drivers for the hardware.

  • Restore BIOS to its default settings.

Following these measures, would resolve the issue in most of the cases. However, if the problem persists, then a clean re-install of operating system is required. However, this measure makes you lose all your data from the primary partition after re-installing the operating system. And if the hard drive data is highly important, you would definitely want to recover it. For this, a high-quality Hard Disk Recovery application is required. These tools are specially designed for Disk Recovery and restore the hard drive data safely and completely. Being non-destructive in nature, these applications are simple to use and understand.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery Software does wonders as it recovers all the lost, missing or inaccessible data in all the logical data loss scenarios. It recovers data from FAT 12, FAT 16, FAT 32, VFAT, NTFS, and NTFS 5 based file systems. This software is designed for Hard Disk Recovery on Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2003, and 2000 platform. This Windows Data Recovery tool also boasts of added features like Disk Cloning, Disk Imaging, etc.
