If a partition is stored on a data medium that indicates it is an SSD, Windows 7 will not defragment the partition.
Is it bad to defrag SSD?
To summarize, do not defrag an SSD
The answer is short and simple — do not defrag a solid state drive. At best it won’t do anything, at worst it does nothing for your performance and you will use up write cycles. If you have done it a few times, it isn’t going to cause you much trouble or harm your SSD.
Do SSD drives need defragging?
SSDs don’t need defragmenting the same way that older hard disks do, but they require occasional maintenance, including the need to have the TRIM utility run occasionally to ensure that deleted blocks are properly marked for reuse.
