All this chat and nobody has suggested SSDs yet? A 40gb SSD isn't terribly expensive, and should be plenty to host Windows and your apps.
Intel X25-V $125 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820167025 *Huge* performance boost, and never worry about defragging. If they need more space, say for large media files, throw in a plain hard drive as a D: drive. RAM is also cheap. Max 'em out. Phillip Partipilo Parametric Solutions Inc. Jupiter, Florida (561) 747-6107 From: Micheal Espinola Jr [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, March 30, 2010 7:14 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: SPEEDING UP WORKSTATIONS CCleaner needs to be setup per your needs first via the GUI, and then you can run it via script with the appropriate command-line switches. Use MyDefrag (or Defraggler) with its command-line switches and/or sample scripts. The MyDefrag scripts are great, and are meant to be used for certain purposes and/or at certain intervals (weekly, monthly, etc). MyDefrag is not a one-size fits all (like most defraggers are). J. Kessels (sp?) the creator of JkDefrag/MyDefrag is very serious about how defragging is done. His sample scripts reflect this very well. He is an active participant in his support forums. My MyDefrag scripts are customized way beyond the samples for my systems, and for the applications installed on them. For instance, the samples typically work with (3) "zones". I work with (11), because of the applications I use and the files I actively work with or store. I'd be happy to help you out with your own scripts, but you really should start with the samples and get an understanding of how they work. -- ME2 On Tue, Mar 30, 2010 at 4:04 PM, <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: You happen to want to share ccleaner and defragller script? _____ If this email is spam, report it here: http://www.OnlyMyEmail.com/ReportSpam<http://www.onlymyemail.com/view/?action=reportSpam&Id=ODEzNjQ6MTA2NjAwNzU2NTpwanBAcHNuZXQuY29tOmRlbGl2ZXJlZA%3D%3D> ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
