If power goes off while SDD+OptimizerTM is in service, would it cause data corruption?
A. NO. The file system maintains the integrity of the data. Many normal file operations, such as extending a file, face the same issues when it comes to the updating the necessary file system metadata. Microsoft is more than aware of the responsibility of their file system to guarantee data consistency and durability. SDD+OptimizerTM depends on the same types of documented and supported file system APIs to move the data as any other application does to manipulate data on the disk. Even the simplest data reading and writing applications, such as Notepad, rely on the file system, in the manner similar to SDD+OptimizerTM, to ensure that the data can be correctly retrieved later.
