There are 3 terms used in the defrager... moved, consolidated and defragmented. Can someone give me some clarification on them?

I quite often use the Win 7 defrager. What don't get me, is why he continues to make more than one pass if the last 'statement' is defragmented at 100%?  Also, if after a "run" of the defrager, I hit defragmentation agn would continue to operate several forward passes agn she says... 100% defragmented. Can someone clarify what happens during each pass and what is the 100% average for each of the 3 sessions in the context of the pass as part of the complete kit and shebang vs?  I must be missing something here. TNX in advance. Neil

Hello

I would like to inform you that the Disk Defragmenter is a tool that rearranges the data on your hard drive and brings together fragmented files so that your computer can run more efficiently. We must keep in mind that Disk Defragmenter uses disk access low priority and processor so that it is not influence your current running programs. This automatically translates a slower process.

Disk defragmentation can take a long time if you run it for the first time and also depend on the space of hard disk and available data. If may take up to 15 to 16 hours, depending on the data and the bad clusters on the hard drive.

What is disk defragmentation?
