If you feel like your non-SSD hard drive is slowing down, then you should check to see how fragmented it is. SSDs work a little differently, and while they never need defragmentation (because fragmentation relates to where the data is physically stored on the drive, which isn’t a factor on SSD), they do sometimes need optimizing. Traditional SATA hard drives may have largely made way for much faster solid-state drives, but they’re still very popular and remain an affordable way to store things like pictures, videos and other non-strenuous file types. On Dell and HP laptops, you should be able to check hard drive health by going to the BIOS and looking for “Diagnostics.”Īlso read: How to Fix “This Setting Is Managed by Your Administrator” in Windows 2. The BIOS is also a good place to see whether the hard drive you want to check is actually being detected by your PC/motherboard.
