Defragging a RAID configured drive

Locked

by tchieng · about 20 years, 4 months ago

I have two hard drives configured as a RAID type 0. I was wondering if it’s okay or safe to defrag on a configuration like this?

  Yes its fine, the OS sees the the two drives as just one regular harddrive. It just happens to perform better =D

  Yes it is fine ot go ahead and defrag the drive. Go to a command line and type:
  
  defrag
  
  you may also use one of the following options:
  
  -a Analyze only
  -f Force defragment
  -v Verbose output
