Enable or disable defragmentation for SSD on Windows 10/8/7
In this article, we will see how Windows 8/10 handles defragmentation on solid state hard disks. A solid-state drive or SSD is a relatively new type of drive that consists of a series of flash memory modules similar to a flash drive. This means that when data is written to the SSD, it cannot be overwritten and must be written elsewhere until the block can be collected – i.e. it can be written at byte level but must be deleted at block level. They are available in different versions, for example as pure or hybrid flash drives, which combine traditional hard drives with solid-state storage and offer several advantages over hard drives and their popularity continues to grow.
