[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1201237, member: 46727"] Microsoft said the same thing about NTFS. "It never needs to be defragmented or optimized" and it may cause problems. We found out it wasn't true and their warnings were ill founded. That's why they now include their own defrag program with Windows. Granted, Unix is not Windows nor NTFS, but it does fragment over time. And I haven't heard of anyone who has made their system unstable by running a Unix defrag program. (iDefrag, Tech Tools Pro, etc.) [/QUOTE]
