Microsoft wants to convert your hard disk into dust.. don't worry!

Its improvements!!! LOL

Vista has several SERVICES that make the disk thrash like it has drank a
swimming pool full of coffee.

What are these services? Indexing (windows search),
Ready Boost, and defrag that is now automatic and has a stupid gui.

You can turn off indexing (windows search) and readyboost from
Control Panel> Administrative tools> services

disable those 2.

Windows still will be able to search the disk.. it just will not index it...

Make sure you organize your stuff and you wont have a problem.

Indexing is stupid, and a dying technology. MS did one more mistake by
including it,
turning it on by default, and not having a GUI way that is very apparent to
turn it off.
