[QUOTE="Carl H, post: 1014606, member: 146384"] As Mac OSX is based on Unix, the disk won't need de-fragging. I'm no expert on Macs (I've only had one for 2 weeks :D ) but I'd guess the filesystem is something like EXT3/4, HFS, XFS, etc. Defragging is only really necessary (or possible) on systems like FAT and NTFS. Must admit, I'm intrigued by the repairing of permissions though. I'll go Google that. :) [/QUOTE]
