DEFRAGGED Meaning and
Definition
-
Defragged is a coined term derived from the word "defragmentation," which refers to a process of organizing and optimizing the storage space on a computer's hard drive. In the context of computer systems, it is a verb that describes the action of running a utility program called a defragmenter to perform defragmentation.
Defragmentation is necessary because as files are deleted, added, or modified on a hard drive, they may become fragmented, meaning that parts of a single file may be scattered in non-contiguous clusters across the disk. This fragmentation can cause slower reading and writing speeds since the computer's read/write head must move around more to access the scattered data.
When a computer is defragged, the defragmenter rearranges the fragmented files, consolidating the scattered parts into contiguous clusters. This process optimizes the storage layout, making file access faster and improving overall system performance.
Typically, defragging involves an automated process that runs in the background while the computer is idle, as it can be a time-consuming operation. However, users can also initiate a defrag manually through specific options provided by the operating system or third-party software.
The term defragged, therefore, refers to the action of defragmenting a computer's hard drive, reorganizing fragmented files, and improving data access speeds. Regular defragmentation is recommended as a maintenance practice to keep the storage system running efficiently.
Etymology of DEFRAGGED
The word "defragged" is a colloquial term derived from the word "defragmented". "Defragmented" originated from two words: "defragment" and "fragment".
The word "defragment" is a combination of "de-" (a prefix indicating reversal or removal) and "fragment", which comes from the Latin word "fragmentum", meaning a broken piece or fragment.
The process of defragmentation refers to the rearrangement of fragmented data on a computer's hard disk, where files are divided into smaller parts and stored in non-contiguous sectors. Defragmenting the disk organizes these fragmented files, placing the pieces closer together, thus improving the efficiency and speed of the computer system.
