Optimize Mac by defragmenting Mac Drive

Usually we implement simple methods to make their Mac run faster by clearing the cache, clutters and cookies from it. But, even doing so we find no improvement in the speed. So, after trying these basic troubleshooting methods at the end we got nothing but frustration. At last users call their technicians or friends and share their slow Mac issues with them. As a result, as per the suggestion of experts they perform disk defragmentation to speed up their Mac which gradually enhance performance. So, defrag Mac drive helps to enhance performance of your Machine.

Fragmentation:
Fragmentation of files can happen when numerous files are created, deleted and modified by users with the passage of time. For example downloading or creating files on daily basis. After some time user delete these files thinking that it will save space for more work. But simply deleting files and emptying the Trash does not meant that we get all the occupied space. The remaining of various deleted files in different sectors of drive can significantly slow down the performance of the machine.

Disk Defragmentation:

Note: The first thing one should do before reinitializing, upgrading and updating process is to take backup copy of all vital file.
This is to ensure that no important files will get deleted during such operations.

Defragmentation Need?
When you own a Machine, you have to pay attention to process like defragmenting your hard-drives, updating anti-virus, installing and enabling firewall for protecting it from unauthorized access and optimization. Actually users who are new to Mac, thought that they need not worry about optimization practices. Because Mac has built-in HFS+ file system which somehow avoid file fragmentation only up to 20mb sized. And Mac has maintenance routines that run periodically.
So, don’t get confused on whether we need defragmentation in Mac or not. As it is quite clear that we need to do defragging if files size is larger than 20 Mb.


Third party tool for defragmentation:
Today we’re delving into the topic of defragmentation in Mac, and I have experience of Stellar Drive Defrag software and it works more efficiently and smoothly. Although there are plenty of software for defragging Mac drives but I suggest this one because of its unique features and interactive interface. This utility also defrag boot volume by creating bootable dvd of that drive.
This software also let you know your drive temperature or status.
