Hmm, I always believed that if it didn't need defragmenting then so be it.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] is the analyze option in defrag reliable?


Hi list,
I was just doing my usual once a fortnight system maintenance e.g disk cleanup and defrag etc. I have heard, that doing things like a defrag etc on too frequent a basis, can put a lot of wear on a hard drive. I have therefore recently began using the analyze option in defrag rather than doing a regular defrag. However, each time I choose the analyze option over the past few months, it always reports, that I do not need to perform a defrag on this hard drive(I only have the one hard drive anyway). How much trust should I put in the analyze report? Or should I ignore the analyze option, and go back to performing a defrag every couple of weeks or so?
   thanks Jason
