System Running "SLOW",The Easiest Way to Increase Computer Speed, "DEFRAGMENTATION"

Hello!! this is the continuation of my last article, where I mentioned about increasing the speed of your computer by doing "DEFRAGMENTATION" of your drives such as (C:) or (D:). Drives are partition(Divisions of Total Space ) of your Hard Disc. For example if the total space of your hard disc is 160 GB, you can partition it into two Drives of 80 GB  each, & drive (C:) will have 80 GB & drive (D:) will have 80 GB space, You can make any number of partition & can allott what ever space you want for a particular drive. such as 40GB C:), 80GB (D:), 40 GB(F:). By default the partition numbering starts from letter (C:). The partitioning is done when you first install an operating system to your computer(Windows XP, vista etc), You can also do partitioning during formatting.
What is Fragmentation & Defragmentation?
Let us understand what is fragments in your disc drives. For example if your disc has 80 GB of space, initially it has no fragments or compartments, but when you write a file size of 10 GB on your 80 GB drive, then this will create a segment or compartment/fragment in which your 10 GB file is stored. Now when you again  write a two file size of 10GB on your drive,then this will create again two fragments of 10 GB each , which is placed behind the first fragment ( when you save a file or download a file & save it, actually you  are writing it on your disc drives). So multiple files in your disc creates multiple fragments in your disc drives, this is "FRAGMENTATION".

How Fragmentation slows down the computer?
Now suppose if you have 4 files of 10 GB space each naming A, B, C, D in your 80 GB Drive, arranged in order,A,B,C,D+ 40 GB empty space, so total =80. After some times you delete the file B, then there is empty space in between A & C,D, & the sequence is A,10GB empty,C,D,40GB empty space.
Now if you have to write a 50GB file, then the 40 GB space must come forward to join with 10GB& finally making 50GB space for new file. So, now the drive will rearrange itself,& transfers A to back & 40GB in front to make it 50.
That was just a very very simplified example. In reality you have thousands of file with empty spaces in between & the drive (C:) in which normally the operating system lies, keeps on rearranging, the space always for utilization. This rearrangement takes time & make your computer slow.

How Defragmentation increases the speed?
Defragmentation arranges the file in order, so all the empty spaces are kept in front, & there is no continuous rearrangement of the empty & filled segments/fragments. This will make your computer runs faster.:-)

So Friends It is advisable to Defragment your disc drives regularly to increase the speed of your computer.
Again a Simple Common Man's Way & I say it "BACK TO BASICS".

How to do "Defragmentation"??
In Windows 7 & vista, just type defragmentation in the start---> Search box--->this will open Disc Dfragment option in the Start window---> click it & the new Defragmentation window will open---> defragment the drives.

In Windows XP, click my computer---> right click on the drive you want to defragment---> click on properties---> click tools--->select Defragment Now---> click to Start Defragmentation.
