I used to use Defraggler with XP, but it seems to foul up w7, it needs files where it expects them to be. Puran Free works well and it can do a boot-time defrag.

I just had a thought strike me. Actually, it was more like it whomped me upside the head. Now that I'm back off the floor and my eyes are no longer crossed... I have no idea why I was worried about automatic defragging on my notebook after I install the SSD. There will be only one drive—the SSD—so there aren't going to be any spinners in the machine. It won't matter if I don't do a clean install. All I have to do is disable defrag. Duh!
I'm surprised one of you all didn't pickup on that blooper.
Because post #1 didn't mention a notebook. It simply said it turned off drgrag on spinners too.

...I pulled the trigger on a 500GB Samsung 840 EVO (caught it on sale) for my notebook so it will be interesting to see what happens there since I don't plan on doing a clean install...
SSDs will show up in the Defrag initial screen. When you click on the schedule to select the disks to defrag is when the SSDs is/are hidden. It's a little confusing since the first screen says "only disks that can be defragmented are shown". This is the truth though since you can force a defrag on a SSD from that screen. This is my schedule. The C drive is a SSD.
