The action of defragmenting, particularly with respect to a computer disk or drive
(Bilgisayar) In the context of administering computer systems, defragmentation is a process that reduces the amount of fragmentation in file systems. It does this by physically reorganizing the contents of the disk to store the pieces of each file close together and contiguously. It also attempts to create larger regions of free space using compaction to impede the return of fragmentation. Some defragmenters also try to keep smaller files within a single directory together, as they are often accessed in sequence. According to a survey, 42% of PC users fail to defrag their system regularly, adversely affecting system performance
the process of reorganizing and rewriting files on your hard disk so that they are all in one continuous area rather than in several smaller areas that are discontinuous
A software process that rearranges data to fill in the empty spaces that develop on disks and make data easier to obtain
Arranging fragments of data into contiguous blocks in RAM or storage memory (also called "optimizing")
The process of rewriting parts of a file to contiguous sectors on a hard disk drive Defragmentation is done to increase disk speed access and retrieval For example, when files are updated, updates are typically saved on the largest continuous space on the hard disk, often on a different sector than other parts of the file When files are fragmented like this, a computer must search the entire hard disk each time the file is opened to locate all of its parts, which slows down response time considerably Routine disk defragmentation is recommended
Reorganizing the files on a hard drive so that all the parts of a file are next to each other, so it can be read faster This also puts all the free space together
The operating system tries to save data to your hard drive in one place, but soon this becomes hard and it splits files up and places the data in different places of the hard drive The file had become fragmented When you run deframentation it will rearrange the files so that they are in the same place This allows faster loading times
The act of reorganizing a hard drive or diskette, so individual applications or files aren't fragmented, or scattered Defragmentation usually involves rewriting programs into contiguous (connected) clusters of information This speeds up loading and retrieval time of a file because the read/write head of a drive doesn't have to search for scattered bits of information
The process of removing wasted space between fragments on a hard disk As fragmentation occurs, small areas of wasted space are created on the hard disk between them The process of defragmenting the drive moves all the fragments close together producing more usable disk space desktop - Your workspace on the computer screen The desktop is what appears when your computer first starts up but before you start any programs It has icons on it, some of which are My Computer, the Recycle Bin, My Documents and/or Internet Explorer
The process of rewriting a program that is stored in noncontiguous clusters into contiguous clusters (pg 80)
Running a program to organize the files on a hard disk so that the various clusters of data for each file are once again contiguous This helps to speed up the hard disk
Over time, the files on a computer's hard disk drive become disorganised Running a defragmentation program restores order and speeds up the reading and writing of data
{i} reunite files, splice together a file that is scattered across the surface of a disk (Computers)
A process by which data on a hard disk is rearranged in an order that enhances performance Special defragmenting utilities are available for Windows and Mac OS
