Is Defraggler Aware Of These Win-7 Disk Partitions?

[RetiredEngineer]

In my HP Pavilion p6210y Windows-7x64 Home Premium desktop machine, there are 3 related disk and memory partitions which improve performance -- Prefetch Queue (in main memory), SuperFetch Queue (on disk, as a mirror of Prefetch Queue), and System (a disk Microsoft displays in drfgui.exe, which now shows [in error] as 36% fragmented [i don't know where to find a tutorial on this partition]).

 

What I need to know is whether or not Defraggler "knows about" SuperFetch and System disk queues, and therefore treats them appropriately.

 

Note: Recently I ran Norton 15 defrag, and it showed System as 0% fragmented, at a time when drfgui.exe showed System as 30% fragmented.

 

Kind regards,

RetiredEngineer

Are these actually partitions or folders (prefetch folder inside Windows folder)?

 

If you mean taking into account .pf and layout.ini files for boot placement on disk. Nope. Defraggler don't take these into account yet.

Something is wrong if you have a partition named System - but this could be one of the problems you get with a HP computer

 

Windows Disk Management should show you a partition named "System Reserved"

with a status of "Healthy (System,Active,Primary Partition)",

and for safety it should have no drive letter assigned to it - in which case Defraggler will not see it or touch it.

On my computer "System Reserved" is 100 MB.

Fwiw, there is this, on a UEFI BIOS on a GPT formatted disk:

 

 

Don't think DeFraggler would have anything to do w/ it, though.
