    I defrag once a week or so. It’s advisable to defrag before you install any new software.
    Use the Disk Cleanup before you defrag, and reboot after you defrag.

    Hi
    My system has two HDDs, HDD1 80GB is partitioned in to three 12GB (C) 32GB (E) 32GB (F), HDD2 200GB is partitioned in to two equal partitions (D) & (G) so i only need to defrag (C) on a regular bases because that’s my OS and i get a better defrag when all apps are closed or better still defrag in safe mode then reboot, as Ow£n Ka$h says reboot after you defrag, and clean before.

    Hi,

    What deframent tools do you use? I use Windows Defragment and most of the time it says Do not need to Defrag.

    Probably because I have some registry cleaners.

    Only a question, for those running multi HDD’s (and I assume operating systems), have you kept your system restore settings to monitor all the drives?
