HyperFast Technology Optimizes SSD Performance

PR Newswire reports that HyperFast reduces the amount of writing and as a result improves the write times and the life span of SSDs. Although the technology only concerns itself with the fragmentation of files and free space caused by the NTFS file system and not that of the physical placement of data on the SSD, it is designed to consolidate free space when it is needed, without "over" doing it. HyperFast requires no manual analyzing as it is smart enough to automatically know what to do and when.

"SSD hard drives are becoming increasingly more popular. Many portable devices such as laptops, PDA's, Tablet PC's and Netbooks are being used with SSDs. Although prices are still astronomically high - a 1TB SSD setting you back a mere GBP3000 - sooner or later the prices will fall into a more accessible range and they will become far more widely used.”
