I have run defraggler on this laptop since 2009 and with good success
On march 23rd my hard drive began showing many bad blocks, this was a 7200 rpm HItachi 220GB drive.
I replaced the HItachi drive with a new SCANDISK SSD PLUS 240GB
REinstalled system using a macrium image from 2012 of a clean windows install. Ran all updates and added current apps
When I started defraggler it ran fine but it checked upadtes and told me I had 2.12 and the latest was 2.21. I let it installl 2.21. Started 2.21 BSOD
tested a few older versions of defraggler and settled on 2.16 which ran ok.
I wanted defraggler for defragging free space on my external USB WD My Passport Ultra 500GB where I store Macrium images.
I know I do not need to use defrag on the SSD drive.
