[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1810917, member: 56379"] Should probably more specifiically define what sort of 'USB drive" this is. "USB" is an interface/port-type...not a type of drive. In theory this "USB drive" could be: - An older style "spinner" hard drive. - A thumb drive/stick drive. - An external optical drive. - An external SDD. If this happened to be an external SSD...it's not recommended to defrag SSD's. I realize that very likely this is an external spinner HD. But in theory...a "USB Drive" could be a lot of different things.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
