Quick Q!

Sorry guys just a quick question and hopefully not in the wrong section! What is it best to do? Disc clean up then defrag or defrag then disc clean up?

Thanks.

I'm guessing disc cleanup then defrag.

Edit: Reasoning being that the disc cleanup will leave behind it tons of empty sectors.

Clean up then defrag, going to be free sectors near the beggining of the drive if you defra first

definitely clean then defrag...

...but I havent heard of anyone doing a defrag in about 8years LOL

I defrag daily, I have it scheduled to 1 AM every night.

I used to use a program called Perfectdisk which seemed superior compared to Windows' generic defrag..
