A few months back my rig started crashing whenever I tried to defrag. I was using diskeeper at the time. I uninstalled and tried a defrag with the windows utility and then with IObit smartdefrag trying automatic, manual and boot time defragmentation methods all yielding the same results in a bsod under windows or an automatic reboot if boot time defrag was selected. I can find no other issues and the system seems to be running fine otherwise even under load for extended periods of time. All disk checks come up clean. I am running a raid 0 with two similear Maxtor 300gb SATA drives on an evga 680i A1. Prior to this problem arising I defragged quite frequently with no issues.
