defrag question

i defrag my hd once a week to avoid problems,but i noticed after i defraged last night i looked at view report and it said total fragmentaition 6% and file fragmentation 12% and usualy these go back to 0% is there something im missing ?

 

No. Depends on how you use your computer.

Myself, I play Everquest 2 a lot. I defragged about a week and a half ago. Look what Diskeeper says:

Findings on C:

Diskeeper has completed analysis of this volume and found 3016 fragmented files and/or directories and 14469 excess fragments.

The average number of fragments per file is 1.22.

This volume is heavily fragmented, with 70% of the total volume space available for defragmentation. If you haven't run Diskeeper on this volume yet, it is time to do so. If you have run Diskeeper on this volume, you should schedule Diskeeper to run more often than it has been running to reduce the current fragmentation and maintain a lower level of fragmentation. Also, scheduling Diskeeper to run at times when system activity is low improves the overall performance of your computer.

 

is disk keeper the same as windows xp defrag? ohh and even though i just defraged shouldnt it all be 0%?? maybe i missed your point not sure. thanks

 

Ok, maybe I missed yours as well.

Diskeeper isn't the same, but very similar. They are made by the same people.
I was under the impression that you were concerned with fragmenting quickly, which was why I posted what I did.

In regards to it all being 0, files are in use dont get defragged. The XP defragger is especially notorious for this.

I would try Diskeeper lite off of this site and see how it works for you.
