OTC See over-the-counter market (OTC). :SYCR), a leading developer of utility software, today introduced BigDisk, a revolutionary disk utility for Windows 95 that allows the PC to read all its hard drives as one big drive. The Company also announced that a public beta-test program for BigDisk would commence today, allowing the online community access to this groundbreaking technology, at www.syncronys.com. BigDisk is tentatively scheduled to ship by the end of September upon successful completion of its beta-test cycle. BigDisk allows all of a PC's hard drives to function as one big drive by: (1) extending the amount of free disk space on the C: drive by automatically moving directories to another drive or drives; (2) relocating user-designated directories, including application directories, from the C: drive to a secondary drive, and (3) automatically redirecting new files and directories to a secondary drive while allowing Windows to read and write to the directory, and its files, as if they were on the original C: drive. BigDisk uses its patent-pending Virtual File Management System (VFMS VFMS Victoria Folk Music Society (Victoria, BC, Canada) VFMS Valley Forge Middle School VFMS Valley Forge Military Academy VFMS Victoria Fertitta Middle School ) to manage disk space. VFMS functions at the file system level and, as a result, is transparent to Windows 95. VFMS technology enables users to move files that normally could not be moved, including applications and their components, producing more free disk space than conventional disk utilities such as uninstallers. BigDisk is inherently safe, allowing users to restore files to their original location with one mouse click. Additionally, BigDisk analyzes the PC system as it boots, identifies critical system files, and prevents the user from moving them thereby avoiding system conflicts. BigDisk was developed in an exclusive alliance with GlobalDev, a Las Vegas, Nevada-based software developer, as announced on August 6. Headquartered in Culver City, California Culver City is a city in western Los Angeles County, California. As of the 2000 census, the city had a population of 38,816.
