Experience defragmentation as a visual process

The Defragmentation Simulator turns the normally invisible reordering process of a classic hard drive into an animated surface. Fragmented regions move and combine, making different strategies and their effects immediately understandable.

What you can observe

  • Follow scattered data blocks as they are rearranged step by step.
  • Change the defragmentation method used by the simulation.
  • Adjust options that control both the process and its visual presentation.
  • Compare different runs through an easy-to-follow animation.

How to start a simulation

  1. Choose the starting situation and visual setup.
  2. Select a method and begin the defragmentation run.
  3. Watch the movement, then try another configuration for comparison.

A simulation with no access to your drives

The app does not defragment a real disk and never accesses your storage devices. It is a playful visualization that makes a familiar technical process safe and easy to explore.
