Get more performance from your hard drives

If you think that switching to the high performance power plan is enough to set your computer to the best plan, well, it isnt.

Heres how to set your hard drives so they are included in the high performance:

1. open control panel
2. type power in the search bar and click "change power-saving settings"
3. to the right of the plan name click "change plan settings"
4. Click "change advanced power settings"
5. Go to the hard disk section and then "turn off hard disk after"
6. Enter 0 (zero) in the box (this will change to never)

Doing this prevents your disks from being "turned off".

It's contents can vanish from Windows Explorer and cause huge lags in performance when you attempt a read operation whilst the drive is dormant...

This a greate advice..but im think lets the hdd choose itsself to off or on..when we dun use it,it off,when want to use,its on....
