Memory Areas in the TravelMate 2000
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:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.SYS
In this form, a 256 K byte 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 MS-DOS User's Manual for a full description of available options.
