Maintaining the Hard Drive
Hard drives need regular maintenance because running the system software
divides files, creates spaces between data, and otherwise decreases hard
drive performance. Windows NT provides the Check Disk utility to
maintain the hard drive. Check Disk enables you to check the drive for
errors, fix file system errors, and attempt to recover bad sectors on the
drive.
Use Check Disk from once a week to once a month, depending on how
often you use your computer. Also use Check Disk whenever you have any
hard drive problems.
