I don't think you can do it without a third party software. You can download a trial version of Norton speed disk. Install it you will have 30 days to use the program before it diables. Speeddisk will give you the percentage before it runs. Or, you can try Norton system utilities. Speed disk comes with it.

If the % is under 10 , it should tell you. If not, it just starts defragging automaticly.
