PerfectDisk 2008 Server Chosen by Mississippi State University Libraries

Mississippi State University (MSU) Libraries has selected PerfectDisk® 2008 Server for its Windows® defragmentation. as announced today by the leader in disk defragmentation software, Raxco Software. MSU Libraries aer provided by PerfectDisk 2008 with automated defragmentation and free space consolidation capabilities that were unavailable with any other solution.

MSU Libraries used, prior to deploying PerfectDisk, the Windows built-in defragmenters on its Windows Server® 2003 and Windows Server 2000 systems. Defragmentation, in this environment, was done on a manual basis weekly and took roughly 8 hours to complete. MSU Libraries were allowed by PerfectDisk 2008 to automate the entire process and reduce the rate of fragmentation with PerfectDisk 2008’s Space Restoration Technology™, which completely consolidates free space.

Web Services Specialist at Mississippi State University Libraries, Bobby Goff, commented: “We have much-improved server performance since installing PerfectDisk 2008”. “This improved performance helps our users work better, and this is achieved automatically, with minimal system overhead and easy management.”

Cice president of operations at Raxco Software, Joe Abusamra, declared: “Mississippi State University Libraries adds to the long list of higher education institutions benefitting from PerfectDisk”. “We’re happy that the Libraries’ faculty, staff, student workers and students are all able to benefit from the improved system performance PerfectDisk provides.”
