    Defragmenting SSD

    Hello everyone! Should I use the Windows 10 built-in Disk Defragmentation to defragment my SSD? Some internet sources suggest that SSDs should never be defragmented.

    Windows 10 2004 optimization/defrag bug

    According to Scott Hanselman of Microsoft,
    Windows 7 and later do defragment a solid-state disk (SSD) but in a completely
    different way. There is less incentive for defragmentation of SSDs because file fragmentation has less performance impact on them and they handle a finite number of storage cycles before their lifespan expires. However, file systems cannot support infinite
    file fragmentation as they reach their metadata limit. In addition, Microsoft Drive Optimizer is also responsible for performing the TRIM command
    on SSDs.

    Reference: Microsoft
    Drive Optimizer | Wikipedia     & The real and complete story - Does Windows defragment your SSD?

    So do you think we should leave disk optimizer enabled and forget about it?

    My advice is to turn off your SSD and if you are like me and also have an HDD for storage I would keep the HDD on defrag once a month. There is a bug with this and it is not just retaining the history of it. Many bug reports have been submitted through the
    Feedback Hub by users. May I direct you to this article Windows 10 2004: Bug defragments SSDs too often | Born's Tech and Windows World
    out of many that have been posted about this Version 2004 Defrag Bug to read but you do as you wish and be careful of suggestions mentioned here or you may find yourself purchasing a new SSD. If you want to read more articles just type in your browser search
    "defrag bug in Win 10 version 2004." I am keeping mine turned off until a fix is deployed.

    Cheers

    SSD defragging Problem in Windows 2004

    Defragment & SSD

    Hi.

    I have installed a Samsung SSD 850 Evo on a Windows 10 build 10.0.14393.

    In the Defragment software, I saw "trimmed" instead of "defragmented".

    What is trim? Is it necessary to run defragment on SSD?

    Running defragment makes any problem to SSD or not?

    Thank you.
