kmillerusaf Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Not sure what's going on... But look at my HDD. This is after a defrag with Defraggler. I'm not blaming it on Defraggler by any means but what do you guys make of how the data shows up on the interactive map? Keith There's always an exception to the rule. I'm that exception.

Aethec Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Try a Freespace Defrag (and allow fragmentation) Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmillerusaf Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 Doing so now... I'll let you know what I come up with. For reference, this is a Windows XP professional SP2 box. My Windows Vista HDD looks even worse than this and a regular defrag takes forever. Actually I never let it finish because it was at 33% after 2.5 hours. I'll post the SS later when I get home.

kmillerusaf Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 I used debug3 on defraggler for the Vista laptop and it finished in about 20 mins... I did use JKDefrag to defrag and optimize the drive after Defraggler would not finish so that could be wise. I will attach a photo of the analysis after defragmentation but I can't attach the debug file because it's 106MB. There's always an exception to the rule. I'm that exception.

metalj Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Hi Kmillerusaf Your drives look good to me. Remember that there are no perfect drives. And here's a tip: To defrag faster only defrag fragmented files. After analisys click "View files". Then select them all and click defrg checked. I hope this helps.

kmillerusaf Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yeah I know it's not going to line up perfectly... But like I said, it was stuck on 33% for 2.5 hours on the Vista laptop so I used JK Defrag and it worked fine after that. Not sure what happened there. And I know all about, defragging the files only Thanks anyway! There's always an exception to the rule. I'm that exception.
