Re: Defragging my TP

I would say defragging a non mechanical drive is not necessary. Why? Because one of the main reasons to defrag a mechanical hard drive is to keep the arm from doing too much work. If a file is fragmented across a platter, the arm will have to seek a lot of surface area to get that file.

Since flash memory don't use a mechanical arm, I would doubt it would show much benefit. Also considering how small the memory is on this device, I think it would make it truly unnecessary to do so.
