To maximize potential profits a company must make sure
that every aspect of their business operations are streamlined and
efficient. This requires constant technological updates and routinely
replacing equipment as soon as they begin to show signs of age.
Replacing equipment is expensive and can require a company to take
funding from another department to make ends meet. Luckily replacing
equipment is not always necessary and the expensive replacement of a
computer network system can be avoided altogether through proper care.
A computer network system is the foundation on which every company
rests. These systems allow employees to communicate through email and
instant messaging systems, store valuable company data, enable the
sharing of hardware and software, keep employees in contact with clients
and customers and even provide access to the internet. Because they are
so crucial to keeping business moving steadily companies are quick to
think a system is outdated when it begins to slow down.
A computer network system that is running slowly creates problems for
the entire company. Employees must wait longer for information and
cannot perform their jobs to the best of their abilities. Stress builds
and the quality of work decreases. It is easy to see why a company would
want to make sure that the system is running at an optimal level but
replacing the system is not always the most cost-effective solution.
A computer network system most often slows down because of a problem
called fragmentation. Fragmentation happens when files that are saved to
the hard disk are not stored in a single space. The file is broken up
into bits of data that are stored in various locations around the disk.
As the file continues to be modified the fragmentation worsens and
eventually makes it difficult for the file to be pieced back together at
all. If fragmentation is left unregulated it can cause an entire system
crash and valuable time and data will be lost.
It is not hard to protect a computer network system from the perils of
fragmentation. A company can simply install data performance software to
battle the effects and restore the system to maximum speed. Data
performance software like Diskeeper 2011 from
Diskeeper Corporation works to
restore fragmented files so that they can be recalled easily by the
computer network system. Diskeeper 2011 also reorganizes the data on the
disk so that it can be recalled faster.
Installing
data performance software will extend the life of a computer
network system by providing additional protection. In addition to
restoring fragmented files it protects against future fragmentation.
This means that a computer network system will not crash because of
fragmentation and can be used for much longer without being replaced.
Rather than replacing a computer network system because it shows signs
of slowing down a company should first examine whether or not the system
is protected from fragmentation. A computer network system that is
protected with data performance software will last longer and work more
efficiently than an unprotected system of similar quality. Replacing
systems is an expensive routine and Diskeeper 2011 provides a long term
solution that will save a company money.
