To be more precise only Windows (FAT/NTFS) HDD need defragmentation !

SSD FTW .

Is somebody managed to find case for Studio (ideally would be with belt clip)  ?

 

[goodvibes]

I've considered this. Would be easy enough to cut and fold. I carry mine in something like this for the time being http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-New-Kodak-EasyShare-M893-IS-M863-M763-Camera-Black-Case-/200818324571?pt=UK_Camera_Cases_Bags_Covers&hash=item2ec1b4745b Fits the IEMs as well and is semihard to not push buttons.

New Studio 3rd Anniversary  heavily discounted in my sig for those interested.

 

[goodvibes]

LOL at the 'very limited edition'. Somebody will be very happy to have it but I understand why you're not.

 

[stozzer123]

Yeh just down on the whole saga, someone else can have it and it is a hell of a lot cheaper than direct, and not much different now that i nail varnished that panel.

I usually keep my Studio-V in my backpack 24/7 (college) in a waterproof (and probably impact proof) Pelican case along with my headphones. It looks something like this > http://www.amazon.com/Pelican-1010-045-110-i1010-Waterproof-Case/dp/B000ALFZOU/ref=sr_1_14?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1349984769&sr=1-14&keywords=pelican+case+micro
 
Slightly bulky, but it is worth it to protect my investment.

that kind of case , easy to find, i have one as well (travel case that came with IEMs), but want some kind of holster (Blackberry's holster would be best example ). i care less about protection rather than usability when i walk, and putting it to pocket not very appealing, holster would give access to all all buttons. Still looking )

That would be pointless. The memory on the studio V is probably flash.There are no hard drives on there, hence no fragmentation.

Actually, flash memory can become fragmented:

I've on multiple occasions, after deleting and-or adding music, used the "Flash memory disks" options in My Defrag v4.3.1 to defragment my 2nd generation Studio V without issue.  I also defragment my SanDisk 64 GB MicroSDXC cards after adding-deleting music and have never had a problem.  

 

[Migou67]

For me the fragmentation is noticeable only with the HDD due to their mechanical access to the data, but of course you can defragment a memory card.

 

[lee730]

I figured it's not a good idea on memory though... If the SD cards are anything like SSD (Solid State Drives) then it is detrimental to it and will damage it. You never defragment a Solid State drive... SSD are made of memory and no moving parts as well so I figured they are quite similar.

They are but it shouldn't damage anything. It's just more writes that get taken of the total but you should be able to rewrite the same block 5 times a day for 80 years before it fails. They will also just disregard that sector once it fails so no biggy. It's not like it just stops working.
