Before the defragmentation, the free space was 10GB. After the defragmentation only left 8.40 GB.

Best guess, the storage usage was actually 8.40 before defragmentation. It took a defrag to report the correct storage.

Defragging reorganizes the data on the disk. Say you're taking notes for a class, and you write on whatever you have handy. Note paper, note cards, the back of a check, a shopping list, all over the place. That's what your disk drive looks like after awhile. Fragments of files get put here, there, and everywhere. Each one has a pointer embedded in it that says the next fragment is located at these coordinates.
Defragging copies most or all of these fragments of files to one file, and frees up the space that was tied up by all these little scraps of data. It's like you copied all those notes into one file, nice and neat and easy to study.

it is not a brilliant force via modern standards and you have an excellent form of unfastened area. i might estimate that it would take between one million hour and ninety minutes on the longest. till now you defragment it you're able to do away with all unused classes or you will not get the utmost benefit. The living house windows maintenance area has a disc sparkling-up application not some distance from the defrag button.
