What is the unit of allocation best partition optimized for games and other files?

Original title: Dear lads! I'm buying a Western Digital Caviar Black 500 GB, and I intend to optimize my HARD drive

I want to tell you, what I usually use my PC, so you can help me with the allocation units, partitions and the locations of the page file.

-Use computer games for most of my quality time. I wonder, what is the unit of allocation best partition optimized for games
-I download and download a large number of files. I'll create a separate partition for this kind of data?
-I'll have access to 2 different hard disks the following day. Will I dedicate entire storage for the pagefile? (I've got GB of physical RAM)
Thank you in advance for your time and suggestions!

«Also, I would like to know, if I needed a file at all, or I could skip just use it, because I read something like: pagefile is mainly used for memory images, which I don't really need (some have suggested, you don't even need it on servers).»

When you move the pagefile to another PHYSICAL disk, you should always leave a little on C, perhaps 500 MB, for things like memory dump files. Next, you define a "system managed" pagefile on the other disk.

It never makes sense to totally eliminate the swap file and don't forget that the swap file is not a Microsoft invention designed to shoot to the top of the hard drive space. OS UNIX, Linux and Mac too, independently use the totals of RAM...

  • What is the only guarantee of parts not my laptop battery and other parts still on warranty or not?

    What is the only guarantee of parts my battery laptop and other parts still on warranty or not.

    Can you please suggest me.

    First of all, don't be surprised if a forum moderator deletes your image since it includes the service of your system and for some reason number any makes them have a cow.

    Looking for your resume, it said indeed that you are currently under a single warranty parts August 2016.

    An only parts guarantee means technical support Dell accepts a call from you and solve problems with you and if they determine that a spare part is needed they will ship it to you that you install (or have installed by a person at your charge).  The good news is that shipped parts usually come with a confirmation email with a link to the installation instructions.  So there is a good chance that you will be able to install the part of yourself.  In addition, they may or may not require that you return the defective part.  Carefully read the paperwork accompanies the spare part or you subsequently receive an invoice for the replacement part if you need to return the defective part, but did not.

    As stated in the fine print at the bottom of the image you provided, batteries are not necessarily covered by the warranty.  Only batteries guarantees of Dell for the first year.  After that, they are not covered by the warranty of the system.  You're in your third year of warranty for this system, so unless you have purchased a new battery from Dell in the past year, then the battery is out of warranty.

    Extended warranties generally do not make sense (are not a good value) except on expensive systems.  Most of the failures are the cause of some accidents (spillage, unit dropped) and bit of warranty Dell cover "accidental damage".

    The most common repairs for laptops are replacements of flat screens, replacement of hard drive and keyboard replacements.  Each of these parts are well below $75 and are all pretty easy to install by a very practical person.  The more difficult would be a disk replacement because it's hours to reload the OS, updates, drivers, your software and your data... Often, people just buy a new system rather than make the effort to rebuild all the software from a hard drive failure.   Also most credit cards extend the warranty from the factory for an extra year doing a Dell warranty like two a year.

    Hope you will find it is clear and useful for you.

    Hi Moaz,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you want to know the unit allocation size that is displayed in the format USB window. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    I will certainly help the question of fixing.

    In computer file systems, a cluster is the unit of allocation of disk space for files and directories. To reduce the load of the management of data on disk structures, the file system allocates no individual disk sectors, but contiguous groups of sectors, called clusters.

    On a disk that uses 512-byte sectors, a 512-byte cluster contains one sector, whereas a 4-Kibibyte (KiB) contains eight sectors.

    Refer to the below mentioned article and see if it provides information that you are looking for.

  • What are the units of the DAQmx meter?

    Hello

    I created this VI and several others like it, a few months ago, but I forgot some of what I have at the time.  I believe that this VI should measure period, using the counter on the chassis of the acquisition of data.  Can someone tell me the units of the measurement period?  I think it's seconds, but I am trying to find a way to understand this!  The period values are generated by the DAQmx READ function in the WHILE loop.  What units that work out in the table?  What are the units of the elements of the array, essentially?  See the attached VI.

    In addition, how do you know?  I opened the DETAILED HELP for the DAQmx Read (minimum 1 D NSamp DBL) shows the VI but, I can't find anything on the units of data coming out of the Terminal marked data with the orange wire, which is actually an array of periods, and we take the average of the most recent measures period 15 or more.

    I had a suggestion months ago for a line OR manual containing a description of the measures of buffering EdgeCounting, but when I went to find it, the link had been changed by NEITHER, so I find that manual, but I think the answer is probably there because I remember this manual is very helpful when I've done it before.

    Thanks for the tips.

    HI dav2010,

    When you create a virtual channel, you must specify the units of the task of counter uses.  There are several options that are listed in help here:

    http://zone.NI.com/reference/en-XX/help/370469AA-01/lvdaqmx/mxcreatechannel/#DAQmxCreateChannel%28CI...

    I'm not on a computer with LabVIEW now, but I think the default should be ticks, which is the number of ticks the time base of your device.  You can find this information in your hardware specifications.

    Kind regards

  • What is the unit of the table?

    Hello! I have a simple question, is what is the unit of the graph. Thank you!

    Adds, I mean X scale

    Everything you want it to be.

    If you pass a numeric value, or a digital picture, the units are the elements of the array (0, 1, 2,...) and whatever that means for you.  If you pass in a waveform, then it will be seconds, or whatever the dT of the wave.

    Hi, I bought a the United States iphone6, im now in South Africa and it will not work. It says sim not supported.how do I fix this?

    The SIM card is not support indicates that the iPhone is locked to the American carrier that it has been activated with. In order to obtain the released lock it is necessary that you talk to the carrier to find out what their requirements are to release the lock. They are the only ones who unlock it so that it can be used with another carrier.

  • What is the fastest connection that I can use for a new external SSD for my MBP late 2008?

    That IS the question. I want a new external SSD for my MBP late 2008.

    What is the fastest connection type that works?

    'External' and 'SSD' could be a problem.  SSDS are different animals of disks spinny.  Some will say that you need not trim on SSD (TRIM is a management tool to move only the ' opportunity' bytes in a block when the block of data is moved), but definitely TRIM does not work on USB or Firewire.  Not sure if the TRIM works on Thunderbolt connected readers as it does on disks SATA-path, however.

    Speed included between slower and faster, however: USB 2.0, Firewire 400, Firewire 800, USB 3.0, love at first sight.

    I get up to a cable of length more camera more and then peripheral is not is not recognized. I Yawcam program on my computer which is optimal

    for a web camera to use invisably.

    According to the official FAQ USB. page here:

    http://www.usb.org/developers/usbfaq#cab1 ,

    5 m is the maximum length of a USB cable. A lot of points 3 and 4 on the above page dealing with how to deal with scenarios beyond this length.

    Personally, I have only ever went up to 4.8 m and it was with an external hard drive (which had its own separate power supply).

  • What is the difference between win 7 pro DSP OEI DVD and the OEM or normal Full pack?

    1. What is the difference between win 7 pro DSP OEI DVD and the pack OEM or normal Full we learned normally?
    2. does DSP OEI DVD comes with CD of instalation?

    These versions are for small integrators (DSP = 'partners in enforcement service'), which usually contain a single Windows (1pk = 32-bit or 64-bit, not both as in commercial versions) and an OEM preinstallation kit to preconfigure Windows and/or integrate additional tools (OEI = 'Installation of Original equipment' or 'Integration organizational environment'). They have the same limitations that versions OEM = license is tied to the computer where the operating system has been installed initially and not transferable in case of death of the machine.
