What happens if i defrag my hard drive




















Additionally, many SSDs use algorithms that deliberately spread data over flash memory chips that only make sense to the SSD's controller. Since the computer doesn't process the SSD data arrangement algorithms, the data is shuffled around and not actually defragmented. Windows can run hard drive defragmentation in the background so that it's unnoticeable. You can run on-demand defragmentation or adjust background defragmentation frequency with the "Optimize Drives" program.

Access "Optimize Drives" by searching for "Defrag" on the Charms menu search bar and selecting the "Defragment and optimize your drives" result. Select the hard drive you want to defrag and click the "Change Settings" option. Check the box next to "run on a schedule" and select the "Weekly" or "Monthly" option.
