Disc deframenter? help?

yesterday when i defragmented the disc it stated i had 34% free space on the local disc C. Today it stated i had 9% free space on the C drive, Ive managed to get it up to 42% free space now but how do i get it to check the CD ROM drive (E)? as when i went into 'my computer' and looked in disc drive E properties it states there was no space available, same with the DVD rom drive. How do i change the local disc (C) so (E) %26amp; (D) drives can get defragged aswell,,,,ive deleted most of the programms that i dont use and emptied the trash to see if this will help but to no avail also what is the local disc? is it the floppy? as ive never inserted a floppy disc,,,,,,would it be possisble if you can explain it in non pc gargon if you have any idea to help me

Disc deframenter? help?
Ok Brava_Chick,


Lemme assume somethings here.


1. You have no idea what a computer is? do u?





lol.. no offence to you..





Local Disk: Is the disk that is attached to your personal computer. It is the Hard disk.





The next thing to remember is: ROM Disks cannot be formatted or defragmented.





Next, NEVER DELETE PROGRAMS FROM A COMPUTER. IT WILL MESS UP YOUR COMPUTER TO THE CORE.





Use add/remove programs utility to remove programs from your computer.





Local disk is not the floppy. If your computer has a floppy drive, it'll show up as "3½ Floppy A"





When a cd or dvd is written, even if the files don't take up all the space, still the system shows that all the space is taken because no more files can be written to it.








This was the simplest explanation that I could come up with.
Reply:You don't defrag your CD and DVD drives. There is no space on them and nothing to defrag. They only read the information that is on a CD or DVD that you insert. If you write to those drives you are writing to the blank CD or DVD you put in the drive.
Reply:you can defragment (c) + (d)it compresses all that in there to make free space.do this once a month at least and it will keep yer space in shape.also you can use a progam that does a great job for you,if you want that info email me back.good luck.
Reply:Well as the afore people said, You cannot defrag your external media drives. They cannot be defragged. Local disc is the hard drive. Your hard drive, Flash cards, and Jump drives are the only things that can defragged on your computer.
