  • Reclamation Level

    Select the level of reclamation to be done. On the slider the numbers indicate the percentage of unused data blocks that can be defragmented.

    • 1 is equal to 80% (Least aggressive reclamation, low I/O on the disk)

    • 2 is equal to 60%

    • 3 is equal to 40%

    • 4 is equal to 20% (Most aggressive reclamation, higher I/O on the disk)
