[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 58582, member: 5184"] That doesn't sound similar to defrag at all... A fragmented drive means that the data on it is spread all over the disk, in little fragments, which increases access times significantly. Defragmenting simply puts back together the fragments that belong together, and lines everything up, making disk access faster again, as the head of the disk doesn't have to go back and forth all the time while reading the data.
