<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Fragmentation is a function of the
characteristics of the operating system.<br>

On the other hand, solid state drives sometimes have a setup that
writes to different portions of the media when it is writing.<br>
This spreads the writes around to different portions of the device
so the wear is not all in the same spot.<br>
