This article shares with you about the role of disk defragmenter in computers. The editor thinks it is very practical, so share it with you as a reference and follow the editor to have a look.

The main function of disk defragmenter is to sort out some scattered and discontiguous sector space in the disk in order to improve the read and write speed of the disk. Disk fragmentation refers to the discontiguous files generated during the read and write process of the hard disk. Disk fragmentation will prolong the seek time of the hard disk and affect the system performance.

Detailed introduction:

The files written discontinuously on the hard disk will produce disk fragments, which will prolong the seek time of the hard disk and affect the performance of the system. For example, if a hard disk is used in virtual memory, disk fragments will be generated on the hard disk, so disk fragments will prolong the seek time of the hard disk and affect the performance of the system.

In fact, there should be no doubt about tidying up the hard drive regularly. If hard disk defragmentation does damage the hard drive, it will be after an almost astronomical amount of defragmentation. As the hard drive is used for a long time, the location of the files will become fragmented-the contents of the files will be scattered over different locations of the hard drive.

The existence of these fragmented files will reduce the efficiency of the hard disk and increase the possibility of data loss and data corruption. The defragmenter collects the fragments together and stores them on the hard disk as a continuous whole. Windows comes with such programs: disk Defragmenter (DiskDefragmenter), but there are better such programs in the utility software NortonUtilities and Nuts&Bolts.
