Slow PC? Defragment it Now
Oct 28th
Have you bothered that your PC is running slower and slower, even you cannot detect any virus in it? What is wrong with it? As a matter of fact, it is likely that your computer is overstaffed by a lot of junks in the hard disk. If you want to get rid of the slow PC, it is advisable for you to remove those junks first.
And, in this article, I will tell you something about such junks and help you how to remove them.
Such junks are called fragments in the hard disk which are caused by frequent read-write operation and deleting and moving files. Once the fragments are increasing, it has influence on the read-write speed definitely, but not on the integrity on the files. However, it is undoubted to hinder the speed of computer. After using the hard disk for a long time, the restored areas have been occupied by messy fragments. What is worse, you can not put any large files on them but they still occupy a large number of spaces. So, you have to clear up them so as to accumulate a larger and empty space to put more files. Well, there are other features of fragments you should know about.
First, the fragments are available spaces in fact; even so, they are too small to form a large space to restore any file, what is more, such fragments are displaced in a mess which forces them to arrange orderly. And, the so-called “defragmentation” is to collect them to turn into a useful restored space. Because the files are put continuously, it can reduce the time to read among disk heads in the hope to speed up read-write operation and expand the usage of hard disk as well.
As mentioned above, you are bound to defragment your hard disk. Maybe turning to the “Disk Defragmenter” of the Windows is your first choice. You can right-click the disk needed to defragment, choose “Properties”—“Tool” and then start the defragmentation. However, the time of defragmenting is connected with your computer performance, the size of your disk data and so forth.
But, normally, the “Disk Defragmenter” is rather shabby in cleaning speed and efficiency; worse, it cannot provide more advanced functions in defragmentation. Here, I recommend you to use a third party tool which has gained a lot of praises. If you have never used it before, you are supposed to have a try with few clicks.

Oct 27th

In this article, I will tell you the useful knowledge about defragmentation which can help you optimize your computer.
In the first place, let us see what disk fragment is. Actually, disk fragment should be called file fragment, because the files are restored in different places sporadically rather than continuously in series.
When physical memory of application is insufficient, the operation system can create temporary swap files normally which virtualizes the disk space as memory so as to easy up the burden of physical memory. However, the virtual memory management program may perform read-write operation frequently ton the hard disks which produces a bunch of fragments. This is the main of piling fragmentation in the hard disk.
Besides, when you browse over Internet Explorer, it may bring about plenty of temporary files. Or the setting of file catalog can also cause a large number of fragments. Usually, this may not lead to problems in the system, but when they pile excessively, the system has to search them back and forth in order to read such files. If this continues a long time, it can result in declining system performance and shortening the usage of the hard disks. What is worse, redundant disk fragment may cause the loss of restored files. It is really a disaster, is it?
