Its never been a question if fragmentation happens on an SSD. It does. The question is whether or not its worth de-fragmenting:
1. Are you getting a worthwhile performance gain? 2. Is the effort required deteriorating ROI due to user interference or shortened MTF in a cost-prohibitive manner? Everything I have read indicates that it significantly hurts the MTF, and the performance gain is negligible. ROI of course can vary greatly depending on what you are doing with the equipment, and what that means to you fiscally. So, it is possible that defrag'ing an SSD is a worthwhile investment. I would imagine that is something akin to the way [fraudulent] investors short the stock market by paying for their analytical servers to be physically closer to the Exchange's servers. Thus gaining micro-seconds of advantage for every trade. -- Espi On Mon, May 19, 2014 at 11:42 AM, Dave Lum <[email protected]> wrote: > Truth, or salesmanship? > http://www.condusiv.com/knowledge-center/videos/videos.aspx?index=13 > > I wonder if the actual productivity increase would more than pay for the > product. > > Dave "skeptical" > > > >
