[QUOTE="Haalcyon, post: 1229752, member: 200369"] No, Mac's do not defragment automatically with boot up...that'd really slow you down as defragmentation takes a little while even on a fast 7,200rpm drive...especially if its heavily fragmented (which is likely if its never been defragmented). I'm not sure why Apple doesn't include any mechanism to defragment the hard drive as its quite necessary to maintain top performance. [/QUOTE]
