1) Make sure the screensaver etc is turned off

2) If it still does it - Use Norton Speed Disk... it's 20 times faster than MS Defrag which hasn't changed much since 1995 (Peter Norton wrote it and wasn't about to make it as fast as speed disk lol)

3) BS... we defrag whenever the disk/s hits 98% intact - 2% fragged and we have WD drives here that are 5 years old. Defragging doesn't hurt them. I'm looking at 3 in this system that have been defragged up to 3 times a day since 97 and not a problem with them.

So 20+ for 20+ HD's, (all WD) they have never fussed about defragging, in other words... never failed from it. Hmmmm... never failed from ANYthing in fact. WD all the way.
