PrimoCache (formerly called FancyCache) is a very useful Cache Disk program, developed by Romex Software from China. As opposed to virtual memory, it virtualizes the idle space of physical memory, SSD hard drive, or flash drive on your computer into the cache space of your HDD hard drive, making your computer run faster. In other words, it can store the data that needs to be read frequently in the hard disk into a faster storage device such as physical memory, thus effectively improving the performance of the physical hard drive.

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.

[v6.1] UltimateDefrag – Most visualized and popular disk defragmenter

As a matter of fact, most computer users only use about 20% files in 80% time, that means most of the content on your hard disk keeps in a dormant state in most of the time. By placing the rarely used files/folders onto the slower tracks on your drive (i.e.: near the center of the circle) and moving the frequently used ones to the areas that can be quickly accessed (external rim), we are able to realize the real optimization to disk performance.

[v20.0] Diskeeper – World’s best, most advanced and fully-automatic disk defragmenting tool

File fragmentation on disk significantly slows down the file access (read/write) speed, especially in working environments where source code libraries and compilations are frequently updated. So defragmenting software is one of the common tools that computers must use. There are so many defragmenting programs in the market – commercial, free, or open-source. Among them, Diskeeper and PerfectDisk, both with a long development history and solid technologies, are recognized leaders – any other similar applications pale by comparison.

[v7.x] Gilisoft RAMDisk – Boost performance and speed up access to data

Because physical memory performs operations much, much faster than hard disk, RAM disk can greatly improve application performance. Given that large capacity memory is now widely available and mostly idle, so we can use software like GiliSoft RAMDisk to create free memory as virtual hard drives for use, thus increasing the running speed of software or system many times.
