Free Driver Backup is a small and practical free driver backup software. This will simplify the traditional process of installing hardware drivers and users will have less problems with this process. For example, after reinstalling the system, there are no network card drivers and other drivers cannot be downloaded and installed online, or the driver update fails. In this case, driver backup can be very helpful.

Free Driver Backup lets you back up only selected hardware drivers, drivers that do not come with Windows, and all drivers with one click. Also, it supports cookie backup, IE Favorite backup (now useless), and registry backup. Although this tool enables you to quickly create driver backups, it does not provide driver recovery functionality. Therefore, to restore the backed up driver file, you need to manually copy it to its original location, install it manually, or update the driver via Device Manager.

Driver backups are usually compact and contain only the necessary driver files. Therefore, they are much smaller in file size than the official driver installation packages. That is, backing up and restoring drivers is not only more efficient than downloading / installing a complete driver package, but also saves a certain amount of disk space.

RAMMap is a small, free but professional tool for analyzing and clearing physical memory usage developed by Microsoft. It presents detailed RAM usage information in a variety of ways, enabling you to understand the memory usage of your system and applications and how Windows manages memory allocation. In addition, it can effectively clear memory.

For developers, RAMMap can be used to analyze exactly how Windows is allocating physical memory, how much file data is cached in RAM, or how much RAM the kernel and device drivers are using, and how Windows manages memory. To answer specific questions about application memory usage, or how RAM is being allocated. For ordinary computer users, it can optimize applications that occupy too much memory and clear the cache data in memory to ensure the smoothness of your system.

In short, if you are looking for a more professional physical memory usage analysis utility to understand how Windows manages and uses memory, or a more efficient tool for clearing different areas of memory, then RAMMap is all you need.

We need to use hardware detection tools when repairing computers or replacing new devices. CPU-Z for processor, GPU-Z for graphics card (NVIDIA graphics card also has a dedicated CUDA-Z For identification Chuda Cell), and many users are accustomed to using CrystalDiskInfo for hard drives, but now we have a better choice: SSD-Z.

SSD-Z is a professional, highly reliable disk detection tool in Denmark that supports data identification of SSD, HDD, USB Flash. NVMe, Optical drives and other storage devices. It reads the controller model, device firmware for displaying processing technology, Smart, Flash type and brand, interface type, firmware version and other useful information about hardware devices. It also provides features such as real-time disk health status, partition status, performance testing, and device diagnostics.

CrystalDiskinfo is the most well-known tool for identifying hard disk data, and its accuracy and detail do not match those of SSD-Z, such as an amateur versus an expert. In contrast, CrystalDiskInfo cannot provide comprehensive or valid information on many unknown SSD brands and models.

// Key Features //

• Details of NAND chip controller and processing technology (for known devices).
• Verify that TRIM is enabled for your system and SSD.
• A complete list of smart status and all available features of the device.
• List of all partitions. Including hidden, unmapped and boot partitions.
• Benchmark IOPS, transfer speed and random access time (work in progress).
• View raw device detection data noise.

One of our biggest challenges when buying a new computer or reinstalling a system is installing drivers for all hardware. Without the driver, the hardware will not work; A driver that fails to install or uses the wrong version can cause various system failures (blue screen, black screen, dead screen, no sound, frequent restarts, some software / games / devices not starting or running properly …).

As a simple, efficient and accurate hardware driver scanner, identifier and updater, DriverIdentifier can scan your computer’s hardware and find all the drivers you need (especially those old or missing drivers) in just a few minutes, then an online review with details. Can create reports. And updates are available for each of them, so you don’t have to search the internet one by one. It’s worth noting that DriverIdentifier’s hardware driver detection is very accurate, and can be used for free.

The biggest advantage of DriverIdentifier is that it has a large, reliable and constantly updated database of drivers. The drivers provided are all from the official site, so you can rest assured to download and use.
