The classic Windows 98 Disk Defragmenter, free in your browser. Pick a drive, cue the HDD sounds, and relive 1998.

Loving this simulator, feels really nostalgic. I could use this as a replacement for the Pomodoro technique.

      It’s not that it happens in the background, it’s that you don’t defrag SSDs

        As others have said, HDDs still defrag, Windows just auto schedules it in the background.

        If you don’t have any HDDs, I’d reccomend getting some. You can get a metric ton of storage for cheap, and the speed difference is only noticable when gaming or moving large files across multiple ones. So just put your games on an SSD.
