    [deleted] I wasn't seeing the "Optimize Drives" windows but only because another was blocking it. Thanks for the very good thread.

    Windows 10 seems to think my RAID 0 HDDs are an SSD?

    Code:

    Does it defrag the drive using the command below instead?

    Hello and welcome louislolitta now if I am reading this right you are using defrag on an SSD?? if so you should not because the TRIM function will do a similar function.

    If you ant my advice don't use the Samsung Magicain software either because it can cause problems also. For example one of my desktops lost all USB ports and I searched for ages for an answer and was put in the picture by another member who had seen this before. So I have removed that software from all machines using Samsung SSD's or I would have still been looking for an answer now.

    I've not heard of Magician causing any issues and I have it installed on two computers.

    Yes well I suppose it is the luck of the draw but the issue I had I spent over nine month trying to rectify that USB port issue and it was pure luck another member had seen this happen before and to be honest I could see on real benefits form using their software it look very good but nothing you cannot do much yourself.
    But each to his own
