It is incredibly difficult for a company to foresee all
of the expenses that they are going to experience during a year. The
best planned budgets can still be thrown off by unexpected costs. The
fastest way to go over budget is to experience a technology failure and
have to replace it. Computer network systems are often replaced by
companies as they begin to slow down and can be quite expensive. To
avoid spending this money and going over budget a company should first
examine the ways that they can make their computer network system last
longer between replacements.
The computer network system is a very important part of a company’s
technological makeup. Employees use it every day for a variety of tasks
like sending emails and instant messages, sharing software and hardware,
storing valuable information, keeping in touch with customers and
clients, and accessing the internet. It is easy to see why these
networks are replaced when they slow down. So many people rely on them
that they need to work as efficiently as possible for as long as
possible. To extend the life of a computer network system a company
should examine the cause of the problems they are experiencing before
replacing the system.
The most common threat to a computer network system is called
fragmentation. Fragmentation is a problem that happens when a file is
not stored as a single piece of information. The file is split into
different bits of information that are spread across the hard drive.
When a user tries to recall these files the computer has to reassemble
the bits of information in the correct order before it can be displayed.
The more fragmented a file is the longer it takes to recall these files
and if it is left unchecked fragmentation can even cause a full crash.
To prevent fragmentation from causing the problems that require a system
to be replaced all a company needs to do is install
data performance
software on their computer network system. Data performance software
like Diskeeper 2011 from
Diskeeper Corporation is designed to go to work
immediately to repair fragmented files. The scattered information is
reassembled into a single piece of information so that the computer can
access it easier. Information is also stored in a more manageable way so
that the computer knows where to find it. These changes combine to make
the system run much faster and for much longer than if fragmentation
were allowed to persist.
Diskeeper 2011 extends the life of the computer network system because
it is able to protect the system from crashes and slowdowns associated
with fragmentation. Instead of spending large amounts of money replacing
entire systems many companies need only install data performance
software to increase the lifespan of their technology and remain on
their yearly budget.
