HD defrag

Post by Love »

Just don't defrag if you have a solid state drive ;)

I never defrag any of my HDDs, when it's idle it's auto defragmenting, also I never had any HDD problems or speed problems.

For Win7 I believe it's auto-defrag, yeah. And the one Microsoft gives you is decent enough.

If you want other suggestions, I used to have PerfectDisk, that was decent. We use DiskKeeper at work.

Like others have said, have it auto defrag once a week on a schedule and then leave your computer on sleep overnight and you'll never have to worry about it. I'd suggest myDefrag though since with the customized user scripts you have a shitload of options which is what I need when auto defrag isn't enough.
