Hi, that's interesting Andrew. I remember one time, someone saying to me
"you must defrag your drive at least once a week, it's very important". I
started off that way back in the days of using Win98. Then, I just forgot
and it would be a three month stretch inbetween defragging. Now, I always
forget so.... I'd say, maybe once every six to eight months?
So, I understand it that defragging isn't as important on an NTSF file
system as it is to a FATS 32 file system?

Hi,
I never do it. I work at a company with several hundred workstations also and they never do it either. It shouldn't really be necessary with NTFS drives,
Andrew.

How often do people defragment their drives as a matter of interest?
