  2. Nvidia G-Sync - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_G-Sync

    G-Sync is a proprietary adaptive sync technology developed by Nvidia aimed primarily at eliminating screen tearing and the need for software alternatives such as Vsync. [1] G-Sync eliminates screen tearing by allowing a video display's refresh rate to adapt to the frame rate of the outputting device (graphics card/integrated graphics) rather than the outputting device adapting to the display ...

  3. Mount (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_(computing)

    Under normal circumstances, the disk should have been synchronized and then unmounted before its removal. Provided synchronization has occurred, a different disk can be inserted into the drive. The system automatically notices that the disk has changed and updates the mount point contents to reflect the new medium.

  4. Hard disk drive performance characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive...

    A hard disk head on an access arm resting on a hard disk platter. The access time or response time of a rotating drive is a measure of the time it takes before the drive can actually transfer data. The factors that control this time on a rotating drive are mostly related to the mechanical nature of the rotating disks and moving heads. It is ...

  5. File system fragmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system_fragmentation

    File system fragmentation is more problematic with consumer-grade hard disk drives because of the increasing disparity between sequential access speed and rotational latency (and to a lesser extent seek time) on which file systems are usually placed. [8] Thus, fragmentation is an important problem in file system research and design.

  6. Disk compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_compression

    A disk compression software utility increases the amount of information that can be stored on a hard disk drive of given size. Unlike a file compression utility, which compresses only specified files—and which requires the user to designate the files to be compressed—an on-the-fly disk compression utility works automatically through resident software without the user needing to be aware of ...

  9. Dynamic drive overlay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_drive_overlay

    Dynamic drive overlay (DDO, also referred to as: software translation driver) is a software technique to extend a system BIOS that does not support logical block addressing (LBA) to access drives larger than 504 MiB. The technology was continued with similar types of problems up to the LBA-48 extension.
