[QUOTE="loggerhead, post: 1566815, member: 320342"] [b]Defrag for Better Response[/b] Dear bobtomay, I did a search on "defrag for Mac" and found a YouTube video that suggested another way to defrag the Mac HD without any cost. Plus it's simple. I tried this and it appears to have worked based on the data I received from the iDefrag app demo. First, I performed a backup of the entire system to Time Machine. Then I restarted the system and hit COMMAND R. The Restore function appeared. I selected the option to Restore the Mac HD. The app deleted everything on the Mac HD then restored the drive based on my last saved Time Machine backup. The restore, of course, packed the front end of the drive, in effect defragmenting the drive. So far, so good. All of the items I typically use (Mail, Safari, Numbers) load quickly again.
