![]() ![]() This is designed for Solid State Drives, aka SSDs. More information about the options Defraggler offers for defragging freespace can be found here. whenever a new file needs to be written, there may not be a large enough block of contiguous free space to fit all of the file data into, forcing the hard drive controller to scatter the file data across several areas of the drive, resulting in fragmentation. This is because over time, the drive’s free space will exist in scattered areas across the drive, rather than in a contiguous block, which can lead to the drive accumulating more fragmentation than it would when compared to if there was an existing contiguous block of free disk space available to store new data. This option will reduce your drive’s susceptibility for fragmentation. Note: It is not abnormal to see leftover fragmentation after performing a Quick Defrag because it does not defragment fragments that are over 50 MBs in size, which have a minimal performance impact. This isn’t as thorough as a full defrag because it will only process files with fragments smaller than 50 MBs in size small fragments are what have the most impact on drive performance, therefore this is an effective, but quick way to give your PC a boost. While this makes our software much more accurate and thorough than other utilities are, it can also greatly extend the amount of time it takes to perform the operation. By default, the Windows Optimize Drives tool (and other various disk defragmenter utilities) will completely ignore files that cannot be defragmented, and fragments that are larger than 64 MBs, whereas a Defraggler “Defrag” will attempt to process all fragmentation, regardless of whether or not defragmentation is possible, and regardless of fragment size.
