SSD block location

When I run Defraggler64 for a spindle drive it also shows the blocks on a Seagate 600 and a 830 drives.
The blocks on the 600 are in 4 different locations most likely do to wear leveling.
Now the blocks on the 830 are in just one clean row like you would see after you do a defrag of a systems spindle drive.
I wonder if running Magicians performance optimization once a month puts or keeps the blocks in a single row or is it from less writes .
 
You cannot see anything related to wear leveling, except performance changes, and possibly NAND v. host write SMART values. Where the data actually is is hidden from you.

What you're seeing is probably a combination of both the Magician's work and Windows not needing to do any funny allocation tricks.
