Disk fragmentation,

Disk fragmentation,

Disk sorting is to splice, move, and integrate non-consecutive file fragments generated during the long-term use of the disk, and move the same file that is not in one place together, release the wasted available disk space and help the system quickly and accurately find the required data.

Because the Disk Head reads and writes files consecutively, if the files are not continuous, the head needs to scan the discontinuous files repeatedly and then splice and integrate these discontinuous files from the cache, obtain the desired data. This not only wastes time and affects the system operation speed, but also frequently and repeatedly scans and reads hard disk disks, causing great losses to the overall mechanical structure and head of the hard disk, as the number of disk fragment files increases, the system will not only run slowly, but also increase the heat of the hard disk and greatly shorten the service life of the hard disk.

Therefore, it is necessary to perform disk fragmentation on your hard disk on a regular basis. The time required for disk fragmentation depends on your computer workload and disk read/write workload. Nowadays, many hard disks are large GB or GB hard disks. Frequent disk sorting is not only a "Disk Burning", but it will take a lot of time if such large-capacity hard disks are fully organized, therefore, disk sorting depends on different situations.

For normal use, the office computer can be fully organized every three or four months. The Office files do not have a very large disk read/write volume, in addition, most of the files are relatively small, and a large volume of fragments are not produced much, so they do not need to be sorted out frequently;

For an ordinary home computer, Internet browsing of web pages often produces IE caching, various downloading applets and controls, images, downloaded games, movies, and so on will produce a large number of disk fragments, in addition, frequent operations on the computer, installation or uninstallation of software, download and deletion of files, and so on will also generate a lot of fragment files, so the number of disk fragment operations should be more frequent as appropriate, it is also possible to clean up the disk once a month. For ordinary home computers, it is better to organize the disk once every one and a half months to two months.

It should be noted that in many cases, we do not need to perform a "big sweep" on the entire hard disk. For example, read/write, download, install, or delete operations on some partitions are frequently used, however, some partitions are usually used as backup areas or usually have very few operations on them. In this way, we only need to fragment frequently operated partitions, it not only saves time (fragment sorting is super slow), but also reduces the reading and writing of unnecessary partitions too frequently, which is convenient and fast.

This can be done with the disk sorting that comes with ipvs, but I suggest you still use some professional system maintenance software to fragment the disk, in this way, you can know the health status of your hard disk more directly and in detail, and also better protect your hard disk, such as the frequently-used [Windos optimization master], [Super Rabbit], and [disk Doctor, I am using the master of optimization. I think it is very good. In terms of the disk fragment function, I can partition and analyze the partitions before sorting, provides detailed charts and information about the fragment file. You can determine whether to organize the file based on the fragment condition, its built-in "System Disk doctor" can also be used for daily Diagnosis and Maintenance of hard disks.

Of course, if you are in trouble, you can also directly use the built-in functions of the system. The sorting method depends on your own preferences and time-based usage of your computer, we hope your hard disk will remain healthy under your maintenance!
