Hey there! Your drive is still in the early stages of cleanup, reaching about 39% after a night of defragmentation with Piriform's tool. With your setup—AMD FX 8320, 8GB RAM, and the Cavier Blue drive—it’s normal for it to take some time. Stopping now isn’t necessary unless you notice any issues. Just keep an eye on it and let it finish the process.
when dealing with large amounts of scattered data, cleanup can take several days. this happened in a very tough situation—about 90% of the drive was full and nearly completely fragmented.
It required about half an hour to clean up a Barracuda 7200.7 with just 2.5GB of data, which is odd. If the disk was really fragmented, that makes sense given how long it took.
Running a defragmentation process can be slow when you're new to it. Let it complete quietly in the background.
Deffraggler takes its time, which is why I switched to Smart Defrag. It functions well even in the free version, and upgrading to the paid plan is affordable.
