DEWESoft measurement unit
The setup type DEWESoft Measurement Unit will install DEWESoft® for highest performance and data safety.
If you have 2 or more hard-disk-partitions, then we recommend to to have all the data on the second partition (or even
second hard disk or array of disks) which are separated from the system partition. The System partition gets fragmented
over time and then the writing performance dramatically drops
Therefore in this installation mode DEWESoft® binaries, setups as well as the data folder will be installed in the same
folder e.g. D:/Dewesoft7) on the second hard-drive-partition.
If you ever need to install a new operating system or need to reformat the system hard-drive-partition, the DEWESoft®
installation can remain: just the device drivers need to be reinstalled.
