Memory Device Drivers
SMARTDRV.SYS
SMARTDRV.SYS is a disk-caching program used to reduce the time it takes your
computer to read data from the hard disk.
When SMARTDRV.SYS is installed, information from the hard disk is temporarily stored
in a cache in Extended or Expanded memory. When needed, the data can be accessed by
the processor directly from the cache memory. The data on the hard disk is updated
automatically to reflect the changes in the data stored in the cache. SMARTDRV.SYS
works best when set up in Expanded memory, but also performs well in Extended
memory.
To install SMARTDRV.SYS in its simplest form, include the following command line in
your CONFIG.SYS file:
DEV1CE=C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.SYS
In this form, a 256-KB cache will be set up in Extended memory.
If you need to specify a particular size for the cache, or if you want the cache to be in
Expanded memory, refer to your BatteryPro & Productivity Software User's Manual for a
full description of available options.
Note: Your TravelMate 3000 provides a high performance disk cache utility, named
CACHE.COM, that supports both read and read/write cache operations. See your
BatteryPro & Productivity Software User's Manual for details on CACHE.COM.
