[QUOTE="V6Pony, post: 1539351, member: 177295"] I know with OS X you don't have to fragment your hard drive. I was wondering why? If you delete a file I'm sure it creates an open space on the hard drive. When you save a new file does it save into the open space. Looks like that would cause the file to be spread in different locations. Causing longer seek times? [/QUOTE]
