Is it safe to disable SuperFetch in Windows 7?

So by disabling the SuperFetch will defiantly increase the available memory (more free memory as in memory holding no data what so ever), but by doing so, you will get horrible performance. Not only the boot time of your system will be longer, application launch time will be longer as well.

Open the Registry Editor. Open the Start Menu, search for regedit, then select it from the results. Find the Superfetch key. Using the left sidebar, navigate to the following: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SYSTEM / CurrentControlSet / Control / Session Manager / MemoryManagement / PrefetchParameters Disable Superfetch.

Superfetch is like drive caching. It copies all your commonly used files to RAM. This allows programs to boot faster. However, if your system doesn’t have the latest hardware, Service Host Superfetch can easily cause high disk usage. High disk usage due to this service isn’t always a problem.

According to Intel you should disable Superfetch and not defrag your SSD ; OCZ also says this. There are reasons for this: Defragmentation reduces the life of the drive for no peformance gain. Superfetch was essentially invented because hard drives are slow.
