Defreg

I would like to weigh in on OneCare being able to select drives that are defragged and tuned up. I have a Netgear SC101 that I use as a univeral backup but can't because it is considered an internal drive, who ever thought that wasn't too bright.

But the thing I would like not to happen is for it to not be defragged, it doesn't respnd well to external formatting. I really don't want OneCare defragging my external USB drive.

I agree on the need to select drives for Defrag or not.

Have you seen the workaround for using an internal drive as the destination for Centralized Backup? http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsOneCare/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2582583&SiteID=2

I second the motion: I see absolutely no value in Tune up trying to defragment my external backup drive or the HP recovery disk D:. Defrag offers to select the drives, why not do the same with OneCare?

Add my name to the list of those who want to disable defrag. Or at least have OneCare smart enough to realise it's trying to defrag a SSD.
