Топ программ для дефрагментации диска windows 10

Доброго времени суток!

Несмотря на то, что в Windows есть встроенный дефрагментатор дисков, существуют сотни (если не больше) программ аналогов (осуществляющих его работу в десятки раз лучше! 👌).

Дело в том, что на мой взгляд, Microsoft его добавила в Windows чтобы был, и его работа далека от идеала (алгоритмы работы несовершенны, нет детального расписания и настройки, нельзя вручную указывать конкретные папки и файлы и т.д.).

Именно поэтому, в этой статье хочу порекомендовать несколько сторонних утилит для дефрагментации жесткого диска (кстати, все утилиты поддерживают русский в полном объеме).

Итак…

📌 Дополнение!

Если вы не знаете, что такое дефрагментация и как ее выполнить, рекомендую 👉 ознакомиться вот с этой справочной статьей.

Does defragging speed up computer?

Defragmentation or defragging is reorganizing the data on a computer’s hard drive so that related files are physically stored closer together, reducing the time it takes for the computer to access them.

Over time, as files are created, modified, and deleted, the data on the hard drive becomes fragmented or scattered in different parts of the disk. For example, when you try to access a fragmented file, the computer has to search through different parts of the disk to find all the pieces of the file, which can slow down performance.

Defragging the hard drive reorganizes the fragmented files, making it easier and faster for the computer to access them. However, the impact on computer speed depends on how fragmented the hard drive was before defragmentation.

If the hard drive is heavily fragmented, defragging can noticeably impact speed. Conversely, if the hard drive was already relatively defragmented, the impact on speed may not be significant. This can be a major factor when the drive is refurbished and sold as a second-hand HDD.

In recent years, defragging has become less necessary as modern operating systems and solid-state drives (SSDs) have improved their file management systems, reducing the amount of fragmentation.

However, some users may still benefit from defragging their hard drives, particularly those using older computers or traditional hard drives.

Is there a good free defragmentation software?

Windows already comes with its free defragmentation software, which you can use to scan and optimize your drivers. For more information, read our how to defrag your drives on Windows 11 guide.

One great feature of this tool is that you can schedule disk defragmentation and let Windows automatically optimize your hard drives.

Remember that the built-in software offers limited functionality, but luckily, there are many great third-party alternatives.

The best defrag software scans your hard drive for junk files and deletes them to free up space.

Formatting your HDD could also save it from a lot of trouble. Check out these best partition managers that do not require formatting the entire disk.
