Yes, but is Windows Defrag any use for an SSD?
as far as i know you should never ever defrag an ssd
Wait...a tool promoting ssd defrag, wut? Nice way of killing your drive.
its not promoting it, its giving you access to the settings to turn it off, from what i can tell its like the godmode thing, all of the settings that you should adjust for ssd's in one place, and a bit of logic to suggest what they should be set to, i.e. defrag off. It kind of spells it out in the first paragraph.
Im still waiting so a virtual "Trim" application for all those non trim enabled SSD users, now that would be worth doing!

OCZ has something will post a link later, also works in raid, I'm not ratifying that it works, but they suggest it does, and the logic seems to be ok.
