[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1507397, member: 24160"] You probably will need an engineer related to the Fusion drive. I don't think I'd try it. The SSD and HDD is seen as a single volume - I would assume it is seen as a single volume by the defrag tools - once again the answer would be no - you never defrag SSD storage. That's literally the reason for the fusion drive - it does it's own moving of the most often used files to the SSD for faster boot times, application launch times, etc. The whole reason for doing a defrag is made pointless.
