I-FAAST Defragmentation ni gunakan different technology dari regular defragmentation. what it does is, it increases file access much fast dari regular defragmentation. kalau regular defragmentation, after the process, file accessibility mungkin increase in about 20%. with I-FAAST, mungkin sampai 80%. gitulah lebih kurang. basically, kalau file tu you selalu gunakan, I-FAAST akan letak file tu kat depan sekali. yang jarang access, dekat belakang. lebih kurang gitulah. how it actually works, oobi tak tau. tapi, itulah apa yang oobi faham sikit-sikit.

boot defrag tu oobi tak pasti but oobi rasa mungkin the process will take place after you reboot the machine, right after the BIOS and before the OS comes up. jadi, mana-mana data yang tak moveable during OS defrag, masa ni boleh move untuk maximum defragmentation.

aku penah dengar org kata kalau defrag selalu, hard disk punya life span pendek, pasal selalu kerja keras nak defrag.
betul ke?
ada sapa2 myth buster?

aku pulak buat setting supaya dia automatic defrage masa screen saver muncul... bagus kalau biar overnight sambil torrent...hehehe.... pagi pagi banyak perubahan ler....

tapi aku rasa komputer aku lagik laju skit kalau lepas tu cuci ngan CleanUp pulak.... rasanya lebih berkesan dari CCleaner... off topic skit..

Disk Defragmenter is a program Microsoft has included with Windows to correct this. Disk Defragmenter is typically located in your Start Menu, under All Programs, Accessories, and System Tools. Disk Defragmenter reorganizes the file fragments on the disk and groups them together in complete files. Some 3rd party defragmenter programs go a step further and group all the free sectors together as well. Some folks call that def ragging the free space.

WARNING!  There is a significant hazard that comes with running any disk defragmenter program. System crashes while defragging, possibly caused by hardware or power failure, may result in a corrupt file. This could be disastrous if it is a critical file. However, these problems are rare. My advice is make sure your critical files and data are backed up, and make sure you do not defrag during a thunderstorm! Or better yet, buy an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) for instant battery power backup.

You should periodically defrag your drives. How often depends on two main factors:

   ■ Computing habits. If you download, create, modify, and delete files frequently, you will have more fragmentation.

   ■ Drive statistics. The size of the drive and the amount of contiguous free space available play critical roles. If there is lots of large chunks of free space, fragmentation will not impact drive performance as readily as a nearly full drive. Older, smaller, slower drives, with 2Mb or less of buffer space, will have a greater impact on performance and will likely benefit from more frequent defragging.

If you have not run a defragmenter program in awhile, you should at least check to see if your drive is fragmented. With Windows? Disk Defragmenter, you can select the Analyze option. Windows will tell you if it thinks you need to defrag.

After your initial defrag, I recommend you check your fragmentation once a month at first. Change the frequency as needed. I defrag my 80Gb drives about once every 3-months.

Note: If Disk Defragmenter reports your disk is only 10% fragmented, it is important to note that it is very likely a large portion of those fragmented files are the files you use frequently. So even though the percentage is low, defragging may prove beneficial.

Common Myths About Defragging:

Myth: Defragging will significantly improve performance.

Fact: Generally speaking, this is not true. You may see some file read and write performance increase after fragmenting a very heavily fragmented drive that is low on free disk space. But, with today? big, fast drives with 8Mb or more of buffers, it is more likely you will not.

Myth: Defragging will increase free disk space.

Fact: Since defragging involves simply moving fragments from one place to another, any increase in free space is negligible at best. Think of a 20 cube ice tray with 5 cubes scattered about the tray. Defragging would be similar to moving those 5 cubes to one end of the tray. You still have 5 cubes, and you still have 15 free spots. They are just grouped together.

Myth: Defragging can fix a broken hard drive or application.

Fact: Again, since defragging only moves file fragments, it cannot fix a broken application, or a drive.

Myth: Running a defragger wears out your hard drive faster.

Fact: This is simply false. First, if your disk is severely fragmented, the drive is working harder moving the read/write heads all over the place looking for fragments. That may wear out a drive faster. Running a defragger is similar to running your daily anti-virus scan.

Myth: Brand new computers don? need to be defragmented.

Fact: Surprisingly, after a fresh Windows install, you may have a couple hundred fragmented files. This happens because during the install, many temporary files are created, modified, and deleted. At the same time, new files are saved. Many of those files are later modified as the new install is configured for your hardware and personal preferences.

Myth: Fragmentation is not a problem when there is a large amount of free space.

Fact: Not true. Any time a file is written to a disk, any free space may be used, even if it will only hold part of the file. The remaining fragments will be dispersed to other free sectors.

Myth: Drives formatted using the NTFS file system do not become fragmented.

Fact: Yes they do. In fact, they do so at almost the same rate as FAT32 formatted drives.

Tips for More Efficient Defragging

   ■ Before defragging, clean out the clutter. If you do any Internet surfing, then in no time at all, you could literally have thousands of small, temporary Internet files and cookies, consuming thousands of disk clusters. Cleaning out the clutter before scanning significantly reduces defragging times and often clears out files that are corrupt or contain malware. I recommend and use CrapCleaner from here. Before first use, check Options, Settings and ensure Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours is unchecked.

Note: Deleting all your cookies will force the manual entry of user names and passwords for sites requiring them on your next visit. Make sure you know them.

Note: You must have at least 15% free space on the drive for temporary working room for Disk Defragmenter. CrapCleaner will help you obtain that, if needed.

   ■ Run Disk Defragmenter in Safe Mode. When Windows is running, many programs are doing things in the background. Many files are ?pen? and cannot be moved. Anti-virus programs are constantly scanning memory, firewalls are monitoring ports, and Windows does some housecleaning. This is all good except when those programs interfere with Disk Defragmenter. What often happens is the Defragmenter will detect a file change and start over, and over, and over. When you boot into Safe Mode (make sure you select without LAN support) only the minimum files for the operating system and minimal hardware drivers are loaded. This will normally allow you to complete the defragmentation, but, since no extra files are open, Disk Defragmenter is able to do a much more efficient job of grouping all the fragments together. See here to learn how to boot into Safe Mode.

   ■ Delete your Hiberfil.sys file. If you use Windows XP's Hibernation feature (most often on laptops), delete the Hiberfil.sys file from the hard disk before defragmenting. The Hiberfil.sys file can be very large. Disk Defragmenter treats the Hiberfil.sys file as an unmovable file. It cannot be defragged, or moved to accommodate other defragging. Deleting the Hiberfil.sys file first will result in a more thorough defragmentation of the drive.

   To delete the Hiberfil.sys file:

   Go to Control Panel, Power Options, select the Hibernate tab, uncheck the Enable hibernation check box and click OK.

   When you clear the check box, XP deletes the Hiberfil.sys file. Be sure to re-enable hibernation when done defragging.

   ■ Use a fixed size Page File (XP). The Page File, also known as swap file, disk cache, swap disk, virtual memory, and by other names, is used by the operating system to provide the CPU extra memory for temporary data storage. By default, Windows XP uses a dynamic Page File. That is, it expands and contracts as needed. The problem is that this can lead to fragmentation. I recommend you set your ?nitial? and ?aximum? sizes to the same.

   ■ Put your Page File on its own disk or partition. If you have more than one drive, put the page file on the second (non-boot) drive. Setting up the Page File on its own partition will eliminate any fragmentation issues with the Page File.

   ■ Defrag before installing or removing major applications and/or upgrades. Defragging before a major install will ensure minimum fragmentation of the new files. Defragging after a major delete will minimize fragmentation of future files when they are written to disk.
