One of the most dangerous problems for a company's
computer network system to encounter is fragmentation. Companies rely on
computer network systems every day to complete even the most basic
tasks, if fragmentation begins to occur the system can suffer serious
problems that make it harder for the company to do their work. The
computer network system is responsible for making sure that employees
can communicate with one another through email and messaging systems,
share software and hardware, store valuable company documents and access
the internet. If it begins to show signs of fragmentation and these
processes take longer, every employee is greatly affected.
Fragmentation happens when files that are stored to the hard disk are
not stored as a single piece of information. The information is broken
up into several smaller pieces that are spread around the hard disk.
Because the file is not stored as a single contiguous piece it takes
longer for the system to find the pieces and rebuild the file so that it
can be used. As files continue to be modified fragmentation worsens and
the system continues to show signs of distress.
There are some problems that are very obvious to the user. Opening files
in Microsoft Word or Outlook can take longer and in some cases emails
and files can't be recalled at all. For programs like these that are
used constantly by businesses these slowdowns are unacceptable.
Fragmentation can also slow down internet speeds for the company. Web
pages on a fragmented system take nearly four times as long to open than
they would if fragmentation were not a problem. Virus and spyware scans
are also affected by fragmentation. It is hard for a scanner to scan
files when they are not stored in a single place and sometimes the
fragmentation is so bad that these scans can increase in time by 35% or
not be completed at all.
Some of the more subtle affects of fragmentation might be incorrectly
attributed to aging hardware. Applications and operating systems can be
slow to respond and boot-up and shut-down commands can be slow to react
or completely unresponsive. These problems are not the hardware but the
prevalence of fragmentation on the system.
To protect a computer network system against these problems a company
needs to install
data performance software. Data performance software is
designed specifically to eliminate fragmentation on the hard disk
leaving the system fast and responsive. Diskeeper 2011 is the newest
data performance software from
Diskeeper Corporation and it is the best
way to make sure that a computer network system will operate the correct
way.
Diskeeper 2011, once installed, will rebuild fragmented files so that
the system will not have to work as hard to recall the information. The
software will also prevent fragmentation from ever occurring again on
the hardware. This leaves the system with an extra layer of security
preventing a full system crash. Diskeeper 2011 will also reorganize the
way that information is stored on the hard disk, making it easier for
the system to find the information that it needs.
Installing data performance software to protect against fragmentation is
a preventative action that all companies should take. It will eliminate
the common issues create problems for companies working on deadlines
and noticing a decrease in the quality of the work that they are
producing. Diskeeper 2011 is the best way to make sure that every
employee is given the tools they need to do their jobs quickly and
correctly.
