Why does Diskmagik sometimes report a significant percentage of fragmentation after completing a manual defrag?
Sometimes, when a drive is highly fragmented, DiskMagik will run an initial pass and still show partial fragmentation. This is by design in the interest of speed of operation. Here the user can choose to leave it as is for the time being, or he can run a second pass to effect a complete defragmentation of the drive. Once you have completed your manual defragmentation and fully defragmented the disk, if you leave the drive on Proactive monitoring then you will not likely have to ever manually run it twice again.
