26.1. Defragmenting Hard Disk Volumes

When copying a file exceeding the largest block of free space on the hard disk, file

fragmentation occurs. Because there is not enough free space to store the entire

file continuously, it will be stored in several blocks. When the fragmented file is

accessed, its data must be read from several different locations.

File fragmentation slows down file access and decreases system performance. It

also speeds up the wear of the hard disk.

To reduce file fragmentation, you must defragment the disks periodically. Disk

defragmentation physically reorganizes the data on the hard disk so that the pieces

of each file are stored close together and continuously. It also attempts to create

larger free space areas in order to prevent files from being fragmented later.

It is recommended to defragment the hard disk in order to:

⚫ access files faster.

⚫ improve overall system performance.

⚫ extend hard disk life.

To defragment the hard disk, follow these steps:

1. In Expert Mode, click Tune-Up on the left menu.

2. Click Run Now corresponding to Defragment Disks.

3. Follow the three-step guided procedure. For more information, please refer to

“Disk Defragmenter Wizard” (p. 88).

Note

Defragmentation may take a while since it involves moving portions of stored data

from a place to another on the hard disk. We recommend you to perform

defragmentation when you are not using your computer.

26.2. Cleaning Up Your PC

Every time you visit a web page, temporary Internet files are created in order to

allow you to access it quicker next time. Despite being referred to as temporary,

these files are not deleted after you close the browser. This may result in a privacy

issue because these files can be seen by anyone who has access to your computer.

Moreover, in time, these files reach a considerable size, eating up your hard disk

space.
