Windows 10 is already running on almost 300 million devices, so we can assume that the upgrade process has been fairly well debugged. If it’s a mess, then some simple house-keeping could avert disaster.

You can enable it under the ‘Algorithms’ tab in the program settings.Īnd thanks as i see they have a new update which I will have to download as I am using Auslogic on all of my PCs.If your PC is in good shape and backed up, you may have very little to do. Moving regular files from the MFT Reserved Zone to the rest of the disk space I can say that after using Auslogic’s (which is the same API as the windows degrager, but they also have an additional options (from their support page) Unlike simple defragmentation, ‘Defrag & Optimize’ mode applies several optimization techniques: I’ve owned Defragers like Diskeeper since their ver 4 and never noticed any difference in performance after running them.

I tried several of the free Defragers mentioned and choose one called Auslogic Disk Defrag. Wondering if in the end you might have tried the Windows XP defrag … that’s the only one I currently have. On my non-DAW PCs and will see how each works. I’ve downloaded several you’ve mentioned that I’ll be testing Just a matter of whose defragger I choose. Is that to say that Windows doesn’t do an adequate job? Is there that big of a difference? I was going to ask why nobody spoke of Windows defrag but I see now you say that other paid products may do a more thorough job. i often defrag after a heavy editing or tracking session and about once a month i do an overnight auto defrag… it will also turn your machine off when it’s finished… cool eh! Yeah you’re correct not to let anything automatically run whilst cubase is running. You can choose to ignore certain files during defrag with PD and by definition you can choose to defrag only certain files, it can also get at the bits that windows defrag tool can’t like the page file and bootsectors IIRC… it does work! it’s well worth the money mate… think i paid about 30 quid a couple of years back.

It’s supposed to be particularly good on laptops… some of the network guys i know where i used to work sware by it!Ī few years back a guitarist i used to work with NEVER defragged and after a while started having problems with audio just cutting out, coming in late, disk overloads in cubase etc and i suggested he defrag… he laughed at the idea but when i suggested he had nothing to loose by trying after 2 or 3 defrags the difference was night and day! Yes i did notice a bit of a difference after i ran it a few times to get everything bang on! thing is with modern machines they go like stink anyway! Think of your hard drive as a big filing cabinet… windows is not clever enough by itself to put the correct sheet of paper in the correct folder in the correct suspension file in the correct drawer of the filing cabinet… defragging is essentially the same as going through a filing cabinet and putting everything where it should go… bit of an over simplification but it’s a good enough analogy.

LOL take no notice of the ‘member’ tags… this forum only opened a few weeks back so no one is a ‘senior member’ which in itself is pretty meaningless as it’s just a ‘rank’ of how many posts you have made and has nothing to do with one’s experience, knowledge etc… i have been building my own PC’s now for over ten years… NEVER bought one off the shelf… worked in TV as an engineer for a few years working on kit down to component level… have a bunch of mates who are network/coders etc and we ALL defrag regularly… you only need to understand how a hard drive works and what fragmentation actually is to understand it is ESSENTIAL!!! let your drive become too fragmented and like i said things will get a bit iffy…
