Scary, what program are you using. Not all Defraggers are equal. I use Perfect Disk
http://www.perfectdisk.com/ I bought this because it works well with my Windows Home Server and had a special buy the WHS product and get I think 10 licenses of Pro version free. Plus I think I got like 30% off too as well. Good luck

When I used raid 1 the windows defragger blue screened me and I had to start in safe mode and select "last known good config". I used Defraggler and all was well.

Yes, if you have an SSD you need to ensure that the automatic defrag under Win 7 is turned off.
