Is there an advantage to it?  I mean, SSD is essentially random access memory.

Solution:

You said it yourself, SSDs are random access. Defragmenting them, as such, provides no benefit, but also wears down the drive by performing a lot of writes. Most modern OS’ turn automatic defragmentation off when you’re using an SSD, so just don’t do it manually and you should be fine.
