-PC HEAL THYSELF- New white paper shows growing trend in self-healing software

Yes, computers get sick. They dont miss school days. But they do miss out on work. A newly released white paper focusing on disk drives discloses how fragmentation affects the ill-health of enterprise class computers. The paper, written by storage industry expert, Drew Robb, shows how to eliminate performance bottlenecks and heighten ROI with automatic defragmentation softwarepart of the growing trend in self-healing technology.

Corrupted database files, sluggish reboots, stability problems, data loss, aborted back ups or CD recording failuresthese are signs of a sick computer. The known solution is defragmentation. But the problem is, some IT professionals are still performing their defragmentation tasks manually. A chore at best.

Per the Robb paper,

A good technician can keep any system running. A better one designs systems so he doesnt have toall systems must be kept, not just from breaking down, but operating at peak performance. Equipment manufacturers and software developers, therefore, are researching and developing self-healing systems.

The paper goes on to detail how by installing an automatic defragmenter on all workstations, laptops and serverssmall to enterprise class companies can retain the full health of their computer systems. They also secure a demonstrable ROI with a host of benefits including a 67.90 to 83.67 percent performance increase, bottom line savings through the prevention of premature hardware upgrades and most important to some; freeing up of the IT professionals time, previously spent doing defragmentation the hard and old fashioned way (manually).

fragmentation exerts a severe toll on enterprise performance and reliability, one that cannot be remedied by manual defragmentation.

The only way to cost-effectively rid servers and workstations is to utilize Diskeeper, the number one automatic defragmenter on the market. The use of this tool places no administrative burden on IT, enhances employee productivity, reduces IT maintenance and pays for itself within a few weeks of implementation. Drew Robb
