Data Maintenance Strategies

Last Updated: $action.dateFormatter.formatDateTime($content.getLastModificationDate())

Defragment & SSD

Never perform defragmentation operations on an SSD (solid-state drive); doing so provides no performance benefits and adds excessive wear to the drive’s limited lifespan.

Develop a Machine Maintenance Strategy

Although today's state-of-the-art computers are largely reliable, they can experience damage through excessive use, power fluctuations, crashes, and incorrect operations. To discover or postpone such damage, you should run maintenance utilities such as Scandisk or Disk Defragment on Windows and Norton Utilities on Macintosh. Optimally, Alexandria should not be running as a service during any maintenance operations.

In addition, you should regularly perform a virus scan with antivirus software. Again, we prefer that Alexandria not be an active service when performing such scans or that the Alexandria Data Folder be excluded from these scans.
