hard drive - Windows 8.1 fails to optimize System Reserved partition

I have Windows 8.1 Professional x64 running from a 256GB OCZ Vertex 4 SSD.


Windows has divided the drive in to two partitions:



  1. System Reserved (350MB NTFS)

  2. C: (238.13GB NTFS)


Whenever Windows attempts to optimize the System Reserved partition, I get an error in the event log:

Should I just remove this from the list of items that are on the optimize schedule or is there a way to fix this issue such that the optimization can succeed?


Not only on SSD but also on Hard Drive the problem exists: System Reserved Needs Optimization
