could one, or would one want to DEFRAG specific parts of Drive?

[jkac123]

Just curious if it is possible to DEFRAG a certain part aof a Drive?

EX: Defrag Outlook Express

[BipolarBill]

No.

[jkac123]

I kinda figured that, just thought I would check

If your drive is partitioned (subdivided into further drives such as a primary partition and secondary partition (the secondary partition being assigned logical drive(s))) then the hard disk is treated as several individual hard drives.

In this case each assigned drive can be individually defragged.

You would use a programme such as fdisk, gdisk or partition magic to subdivide your hard disk into partitions/logical drives.

Partition Magic is something I have been meaning to look into. That may be the answer to solve alot of my problems

Where can I learn about it?

It is sometimes given away on PC Magazine cover disks. worth looking out for. PCPlus magazine has given away two versions of it in the past 12 months.

I love private messages - the mystery

[BipolarBill]

I will agree only because I'm sick of fighting.

[michaeln]

Come on now Bill, that's not the way. Think positive. A good fight can be good for the blood!
