Well, he may have 20+ years of experience with Macs but I have to disagree with him about using a defrag utility once a month
I concur. Not that I'm any kind of expert, but I do check the fragmentation on my 2007 Mac Mini once a month with TechTool Pro. The degree of fragmentation after one month is very minimal. I actually run the TTP Optimizer about every three months, when it does show appreciable fragmentation. I know it's still not necessary, but it keeps the computer busy while I'm sleeping.
