hey everyone and welcome to another HTT tutorial and in this video today I'll be going over how to enable advanced and more basically more optimized computer performance based on an external hard drive or a hard disk that you have so right now I have plugged into my USB hub of a little USB Drive and we want to speed this up and enable it for optimize performance because we're not going to be removing it a whole lot this also works if you have say an external hard drive or something so what we're going to do is just click on the start button and this works in XP or Vista right click on my computer and hit the manage button and if you AC does pop up allow anything that UAC asks for so just say continue or allow or anything whatever it asks so this is a computer management window this is how you manage everything we're going to go to device manager it's going to be under the system tools one and then we're going to go over here on the right-hand side and expand disk drives we're not going to click on it just expand it and here you'll see this is my external hard drive my 7200 RPM 250 gig X internal hard drive and my external ones unplug right now and here's the USB flash memory device that I have plugged in with storage on it I want to enable advanced hard rock performance simply right-click and go to properties this USB flash memory properties depend devices window comes up hit the policies tab and here you'll see optimized for a quick removal or for performance if you optimize it for quick removal it's it's disabling caching on the disk so information is not really readily available in your cache cache a what however you want to call it but if you optimize it for performance here it enables disk writing to the windows cache a to our cache to improve disk performance so I'm just going to hit OK and if it does ask for a restart you will hit yes and I recommend restarting it as soon as you make these changes now I'm going to hit no for the purpose of finishing this video but that's basically it so you can right click hit properties and advanced performance now obviously is my internal hard drive so I checked the enable advanced performance icon now if you are running on a laptop you don't want to have your internal hard drive on advanced performance unless you're running on a battery because if you do lose battery or power for some reason and that would be really bad you might actually lose data or completely have an unusable Drive but that is how to enable advanced disk performance on your Windows machine and I hope this tutorial was helpful if you do have any other tutorial ideas or requests for me go ahead and subscribe and I will get to them as soon as I can so thanks for watching this video and stay tuned for more peace
