That shouldn't have happened.
At most, you might get access errors for the MSDE databases.
We do this at MS every so often to prevent logging errors from fragged
drives.
With the current autogrow factor, the databases can get badly
fragmented.

Subject: [isapros] Disk Defragger on ISA

For no good reason at all other than I was bored on fine Saturday
morning, I decided to run the built in disk defragger on one of my ISA
2004 firewalls. The system "locked up" (for want of a better term) and I
had to ungracefully shutdown and restart.
 
Is this "officially bad" or was I having a bad day? :)
