re: Defrags Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 5:35 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Adam Bradley (7827 messages posted) Defragging your hard drive is only needed if file fragmentation is slowing the system down, and XP has to be very very badly fragmented for it to have a real effect on speed. Defrag venders will tell you it is a miracle cure for any slow system but the truth is that XP rarely needs a defrag and when it does the built in defragger is perfectly capable of handling the job.
