FREEWARE

JDN Reserve is freeware for Windows that enables you to clean your drives in minutes instead of hours. It doesn't actually do any cleaning. It just enables you to do it more quickly. JDN Reserve only takes a second to run and you can always delete any or all of the reserved files quickly and without any problems. No matter whether you want to create one gig or 1,000 gigs, now you can do it in just a split-second.  
 
What does it mean to reserve space and why is that a useful thing to do? With the recent dramatic rise in identity theft, people are becoming aware of a serious Windows security problem. Here is the problem in a nutshell:  
 
When you delete a file, it is not really deleted. Its name is removed from the directory but its data lingers on your drive. So people can retrieve the data and that is one of your greatest vulnerablities. When you delete data, it becomes vulnerable.  
 
People now use wiping or scrubbing utilities to ensure all deleted files are fully erased. But there is a problem with those utilities. They take hours to run and that discourages people from cleaning as often as they should. But there is an answer.  
 
Suppose you have a 60 gig drive and 50 gigs are unused. It will take several hours to wipe those 50 gigs. But once they have been wiped, why waste hours and hours wiping them again and again? That is a colossal waste of time. Clean the drive once and then reserve most of the clean 50 gigs, leaving free only what you need in the near future. From then on, when you clean the drive, you will only have to clean a tiny area and it will only take a few minutes instead of a few hours. That is what JDN Reserve is all about.  
 
JDN Reserve never takes more than a second to run because it doesn't actually write files. It just creates them so that the space cannot be used for anything else. And you can always delete any or all of the reserved files or reserve more space, depending on your needs.  
 
JDN Reserve may also have some application in reducing disk defragmentation.
