Hi Christopher,

Yes, defragging is recommended as a means of tidying up disk drives, and
thus potentially improving performance when the system needs to access
files.  Bear in mind that a "file" is not just something which stores data,
it can also be a program, or all manner of data.

Disk drives themselves are generally designed to work hard, hence why many
have a fairly lengthy warranty period.

George.

Hi George,=20

isn't defragging recommended for all disk drives any way.

If you could help me it would be most grateful also.

P.s. my disk drive is fine, but with seeing all the posts I am just making
sure that by defragging I am not putting my disk drive at risk.

Disk drives sometimes carry a separate manufacturer's warranty, often as
much as 5 years.=3D20

Defragging does exercise the disk drive, but should not cause premature
failure.

The hard disk failure will cause the loss of all files, including the
registry, all mail and documentsI asked Tony Berry to type a note in My
Documents  word explaining why nothing is saved. However George maybe has
the time can you explain the following. I did do a Defrag the evening before
before, I did make sure it had finished, I did reboot.
However Tony Berry said this procedure of Defragging is very high risk,now I
am sure  others do a Defrag on a regular basis and would not dream it was so
risky,can you explain why it is so risky if not George then another part.
I shall not feel confident now to do it ever again. as it may have
contributed to  the disc becoming NApoo, and if the last word is not in the
dictionary I do not want to know that=3D20
