not quite true for example
my mp3 drive has 12% free space out of 31gig it has never been defragmented all the files have written sequentially and contigously improving seek time and doing away with the need for it too be defragmented
...thats a net saving of DAYS
hehe...taking to exageration, are we 2z?
anyway, the point is well made, allbe it is exagerated, it's a fine point indeed.
...I cede here too, but this is important only in fat, as you know...not relevant in this discussion
please restrict your points to ntfs...this way I won't have to cede as often.
now, a point you must cede in ntfs.
Temporary Internet Files partition
on an average days surfin I can get through about 500 new files & nearly all of them fragmented
defrag only takes a minute
because fragmentation is only an issue if you are 85% full, if you have partitions, there are drives that will need to be defragged often, where otherwise, not at all...for instance, your temporary internet folder, whih is ntfs.
unless you made the partition twice the size you need, you will need to defrag this jsut about all the time.
not true if you did not partition.
thank you, thank you very much
and finally;
I reformat because I can
and that's the very point...
I don't reformat because it slows me down to do it...(dherrrr)
you also partition because you can.
I don't partition because it slows computing down to do it
partions are fun, and that's all they are...they are otherwise counterproductive in ntfs.
