i hate defragging....

I need to do that shit too.
$20 says you are putting it off............. again
If you haven't already, do yourself a favor and get the full version of Norton Speed Disk. The whimpy free version won't do it and neither will the Diskeeper Lite or the one built into Windows OS. I do a lot of video work on the computer and I usually use Norton. However, I had my system rebuilt a couple of years ago and I forgot to give them my Norton Speed Disk CD to load after the rebuild. Anyway, was editing, started getting bogged down, knew I needed to defrag, and decided to let Diskeeper do its thing while I grabbed lunch. By the time I grabbed my keys and my wallet, the damned thing said it was finished.
Hah! Sure, like my daughter says she's "finished" cleaning her room.
Anyway, this was a 150 gig Raid that was over 80% full and Diskeeper shot its wad in, like, two minutes. So I loaded Norton on and it continued to chew on the drives for another two hours; drives that Diskeeper said were defragged and ready to use.
My first post here. Hi, Shatzy.

shit man! it was that fast???
i managed to defrag in about an hour.... which
was better than most. i'd like to have it super
fast [img]tongue.gif[/img]
what i really need to do is eliminate some bulky
shit i have on my pc that i rarely use (but for
some reason, i HAVE to have it).
somedays i am totally female! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
oh... and as for the neighbors....
might as well DO the crime if you are consistantly
going to be accused of it.....

btw.... everyone... this is roger...
the circumstances surrounding his appearance
here are irrelevant (though the more scrupulous
private investigator can easily detect the
push)....
what i do wanna make public....
roger has to be the most friggin articulate
poster i've ever had the pleasure to read.
many times i have read his posts and just been
WOWed with the atypical punch and jab his posts
always bring.
definitive, concise... clever.... read his
posts! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

However, as far as defragging goes, nothing beats a nice, slow, heavy defrag of the files and free spaces; speed notwithstanding. Sometimes, you just gotta take it sloooowwwwwww. [img]smile.gif[/img]
back on my old computer.... defragging took
a third of a day to complete... and no, i ain't
kiddin, folks....
i'm certainly not going to bag on this pc since
it only took a short time to defrag.... i'm just
happy to say that i DO defrag... not that it
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally means much in the grand
ol scheme of things....
you know....
.... like entropy
