rezza Veteran Posted June 11, 2004 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2004 Hmm... almost never, because my windows partition is just used to check sites I make in IE and to play a few games. So when a game is installed, I run a defrag. Apart from that, never. (Linux filesystems don't need to be defragged) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesp Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Not too often. *shrugs* I have about 5 things installed on my pc. FireFox, winamp, nero, bittorrent and soulseek. My HD is just for my 50GB of mp3's and bootlegs. No prizes for guessing what I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_snitch Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 every week or so, I use "PerfectDisk", its much better than any of the others including diskkeeper IMO. Uses smart technology to order the data on a criteria on how often it is accessed to prevent further fragmentation. it might take a while the first time, but after that its fine and it actually sppeds things up!
