True you shouldn't but in this case you should. You can only play ps2 games via USB if you defragment. Sad but mandatory. Also have u tried using different ports(in Wii)
You're talking about external USB hard drives. Not pen drives (which use flash memory).
Flash drives are never OK to defragment. If you have issues with a flash drive, a defrag isn't going to save it.

I KNOW you shoudnt the worst it can happen is reducing the useful life time of the drive but it can't hurt to do it sometimes. Also op should try another USB port he must be using the 1.1 port instead of the 2.0

It would be better to copy the files off the flash drive, format it and copy the files back on. Same effect as defragmenting, but with far less wear on the drive.
Anyway I don't see how a fragmented drive could cause games to run faster.

Flash memory access time is constant since there are no mechanical parts to cause a delay. Defragging it won't change the loading speed.

No its not. Your USB drive or SD card are probably too fragmented. Defrag them
That's bad advice, actually.
You shouldn't defragment USB flash drives and SD cards.

    @Xdqwerty No you heard wrong, and don't believe till you experience yourself. Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games of all time. Yes it had issues early on, esp with older hardware like the xbox1, but it is awesome, esp now being 4k on Series S/X or PS5

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, Then i think people were talking about fallout 76
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    that one was buggy too
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right there, fallout 76 was a letdown, but it not that bad now, they have fixed slot of issues they had at launch. Biggest issue with Fallout 76 is its a pay to advance further type of game, which sucks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, I may probably download fallout 3 or new vegas on my ps3
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    cuz I didnt like fallout 1 that much
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    New Vegas is awesome, F3 was ok too.
