![]() This leads to fewer read and write accesses to these memory cells. This is where O&O Defrag 23 goes to work with its new SOLID/COMPLETE method: scattered file fragments will be reconnected and saved in fewer memory cells. The SSD controller tries to counter this phenomenon on a rudimentary level but is unable to do so on account of its not having an overall view of the data structure. This, in turn, leads to a continuous slowing down of the read and write processes, just as we experience on hard disks. Over the course of time SSDs save file fragments over more memory cells than are necessary. This problem doesn’t just apply to hard disks but to SSDs as well. In order to avoid fragmentation, you’d need to know all the newly arriving files as well as all changes and deletions in advance. This can’t be avoided because files are subject to constant changes. This means that over time, files will no longer be filed consecutively but, instead, be scattered across the computer’s entire storage area. The problem: every file system is fragmented.
