Scheduled Defrag Disabled for SSD, but what about 2nd HD?

Hello Win7 forums.
I have my OS installed on a Kingston 64gb SSD, and have disabled scheduled defrags in my Administrative Tools.

I have a second mechanical drive installed for storage and non-vital applications, and can't seem to defrag this drive. I select Disk Defrag for that drive but nothing happens.

My questions is, with Disk Defrag Disabled to care for my SSD, how do I manually defrag my second HD? Or even better, is there a way to turn on scheduled defrag for the mechanical HD only?

Thank you, MGD

I disabled it via:
Control Panel - Admin Tools - Task Scheduler - Microsoft - Windows - Defrag: set to disabled.

Will see about creating a new task for my 2nd Drive right now, thanks for the suggestion, will report back.

The defrag task is entered as:
Action: Start a Program
Details: %windir%\system32\defrag.exe -c
I can edit the action, and it lists "-c" as "add arguments". I assume the C is for my SSD Drive which is named C.

I am hesitant to try and create a task for my SATA (F:) Drive, this is all new to me.
Wonder if I could simply make a new task with:
Action: Start a Program
Details: %windir%\system32\defrag.exe -f

I doubt it will work, seems like I need to browse to the drive I want to defrag, will keep playing with it.

Oh nice, thanks.
Looking through the list of arguments I see what needs to be done.
Getting into unknown territory here, but it's interesting.

Thanks for your help Guy.

I would reenable the scheduled defrag in the task scheduler and then just deselect the C: drive from the list in the defrager itself.
BTW, when I installed my OCZ SSD drive, Windows & automatically removed the SSD (C:) from the defrag schedule list.

You can defrag your second drive manually the same way you've always done it. Using the built-in defragger, which should be in your Start Menu, or by going to the Properties of the drive, under Tools, and choosing the defragger.

In my OP I mentioned that I can't seem to manually defrag it, which is why I am here.

Promising, let me see if that works for my setup. Thanks!
