Overview of Program Accelerator
On the first screen of the Program Accelerator wizard, select the one or more drives that you want to optimize.
When you have made your selections, you can either analyze a drive (see Optional below), or click Next to configure options.
If desired, you can analyze a drive to see the level of file system entropy to determine whether optimization is needed.
To run the analysis, click Analyze Now (or Re-analyze). A progress window will display as System Mechanic examines the drive. When the analysis completes, a snapshot of the results will display, including:
The file system entropy (the percentage of the drive that is misaligned).
A recommendation on whether the drive should be optimized.
To access a more detailed report, click View report. The System Mechanic File System Entropy Report window will open, displaying details about the files checked.
When you are ready to proceed, click Next to configure options.
