Hi guys,
Resurrecting an old thread here as it applies to my new inquiry. In doing recent defrags, I've noticed that some single blocks are showing up after doing ANY defrag option, which have no data or files in them. These "no file" flocks are impeding the defrag on larger files like my archive.pst file, which is 480 Megs large and I have since removed that, and other data files which I'm trying to move to the end of the hard drive.
Long story short, I can not combine the pagefile.sys file or any of the other larger files (since removed), because of these blocks with no files listed in them. Here's a JPG to show you what I'm talking about.
Any idea on how to remove these single emply blocks on the HD?
I also have another question, or maybe a suggestion. Why is it not possible to do a sort on the file lists, ie: file name, # of defragged bits of the file, or the size of the respective files ... during a defrag, and if this is not possible, when I pause the program? It's something I'd like to do.
TIA for any info you can provide on either subject.
Regards, Bob
