I have compared the free space reported by the command line(JP Software Take Command) and defragger itself and they both report the same information, and both report an increase of space after running the optimize. I think the above prior result that did not shown an larger increase was due to the fact that it was ran shortly after running optimiize prior.
Last Ran: August 8,2016
Numbers from Defragger:
Before: 61,669,732,352 (57.4 GB)
After: 58.949.812.224 (54.9 GB)
So this time I lost space. This does not make any sense. This is the first time I have seen this.
Note freespace does go to or near zero while running. Is this normal for an trim enabled SSD?
