| From InfoWorld: Samsung isn't just pushing the envelope in storage capacity of SSDs (solid-state drives), it is also working with software makers to boost SSD performance on operating systems.
The company on Wednesday said it was in talks with Microsoft to improve the performance of SSDs on the Windows OS. The speed and way in which SSDs fetch and cache data are different than hard drives, said Michael Wang, flash marketing manager at Sun. Samsung hopes to work with Microsoft to boost SSD performance on Windows by discovering optimal packet sizes for data transfers and the best ways to read and write files, for example. "We have been so used to hard drives for so many years, Windows is optimized for that obviously," Wang said. View: Article @ Source Site |
