    How fragged is your HDD?



    86% fragmented, I think it might need a defrag.... Any software that's quicker than the one in the MMC?
    To err is human. To really foul things up ... you need a computer.

    All four of my partitions are 1% or below. I used to have a drive like yours, then I did a reformat and installed Diskeeper. I wasnt sure it would work but it does seem to make a real difference. I recommend it

    Definitely the way go is Diskeeper. It defrags better (imo) that the standard defrag util and has many neat option like placing all folders in the same sectors etc. If you can afford it, then give it a go. or download a trial. I guess after 86% you should notice the difference after youve given it a once over

    9% File fragmentation, and it was 1% about a week ago...
    I don't mean to sound cold, or cruel, or vicious, but I am so that's the way it comes out.
