iKyrThraad993i Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Is it Safe to Defrag my Hard Disk Drives and Optimize my SSD? Even the DCS World dedicated SSD? I know HDD can only be defragmented while ssd can not but just wondering if I can use the windows tool to Defragment and optimize drives on all my drives including my DCS World Dedicated SSD Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudel_chw Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 It's safe ... but SSD drives dont need any optimization, as the TRIM function is already doing it while the drive is in use.

StandingCow Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Windows 10 knows the difference between HDD and SSD... it used to be that you wanted to make sure Windows didn't try and defrag an SSD, but with Windows 10 that isn't a worry anymore. 5900X - 32 GB 3600 RAM - 1080TI My Twitch Channel ~Moo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
