Problem with defragmenting my external drive

Hello,

I have a problem with defragmenting my external drive My Passport WDBY8L0020BSL. In fact it occurs in more than five hours … That’s a lot, I think. On this record I have Word files, Excel files, videos and my backups and disk images files. What is the problem?

Best regards,

Pierre.
