Windows 7 Features !

Solid state drives (SSDs) can deliver better performance, superior battery life, increased ruggedness, faster startup times, more consistent responsiveness, and vibration and noise reductions. With prices slowly dropping and quality improving, it can be expected that a growing number of computers to be sold with SSDs instead of contemporary HDDs.

Current SSDs still have some issues with disk flushes and disk writes. Windows 7 tends to perform efficiently on latest SSDs, in part, because Windows 7 implements many engineering developments to lower the frequency of flushes and writes. This benefits conventional HDDs as well, but is especially helpful on today’s solid state drives.

Windows 7 does not use disk defragmentation on solid state drives. Because they perform really well on random read functions, defragmenting files is not useful enough to warrant the additional disk writing defragmentation process.

Be default, Windows 7 disable ReadyBoost, Superfetch,  as well as application launch and boot prefetching on solid state drives that have acceptable random read, random flush and write performance. Those technologies were also intended to improve performance on contemporary HDDs, where random read performance might easily be a serious bottleneck.

Since solid state drives tend to perform well when the OS’s partitions are made with the SSD’s alignment requirements in mind, each partition-creating tool in Windows 7 position newly created partitions according to the correct alignment.

Certain SSD manufacturers include memory in their devices to mimic the behavior of contemporary disks by caching writes, and maybe also reads. For drives that perform cache writes and reads in volatile memory, generally, Windows 7 requires that write-ordering and flush commands to be preserved just like with conventional hard drives. Additionally, Windows 7 requires that user settings which disallow write-caching to be obeyed by any write-caching solid state drives just as they are with conventional hard drives. While SSDs do have huge advantages over conventional HDDs, SSDs are more expensive per GB than their HDD cousins. For most users, a hard disk optimized for media recording is a wiser choice, as media playback and recording workloads are mostly sequential in nature.
