A hard drive should be defragmented about once a month as part of a good preventive maintenance schedule.

You will find the disk defragmenter tool by following these steps:

Click: Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools.

If you want a good program that will do it for you automatically, try Ashampoo Magical Defrag 2.
