[v13.0] SSD Fresh – Fast optimize your SSD performance with one-click

Solid-state drives (SSD) have obvious advantages than the traditional mechanical hard disk drives (HDD), but do not mistakenly believe that an SSD does not need optimization. However, for the optimization of SSD, many users may just know one optimization setting – a new SSD should be formatted with 4K alignment. In fact, SSD actually has a lot of places that can be optimized for making its speed faster and service life longer.

[v5.37] Victoria – Professional hard disk bad track scanner & repairer

Bad sector (bad track) is one of the most common failures of mechanical hard disk (HDD), which usually characterizes hard disk reads/writes slow, system prompts “… I/O error”, program gives “cyclic redundancy check (CRC) error”, etc. In these cases, we need use some specially designed tools to correctly detect whether our hard disk has had bad sectors or not, and nip in the bud.

TxBENCH – Better benchmark software for storage devices

When it comes to hard disk performance testing, AS SSD Benchmark and CrystalDiskMark/CrystalDiskInfo must be the first things you can think of. What AppNee wants to tell you is that they are just popular tools, not the best. If what you need is a real professional hard disk performance testing tool, then TxBENCH is one of them, whose existence is earlier than AS SSD Benchmark, but it is little known because of its low profile.

SSD-Z – Comprehensive info viewer for SSD and other disk devices

We need to use hardware detection tools when repairing computers or replacing new devices. There is CPU-Z for processors, GPU-Z for graphics cards (NVIDIA graphics cards also have a dedicated CUDA-Z for detecting CUDA cells), and for hard drives a lot of users are generally used to using CrystalDiskInfo, but now we have a better choice: SSD-Z.
