As Jim mentions, MSIT does defrag their disks, so its not outside the
realm of reasonable action. However, I think maybe the box I was
performing the task on was a bit underpowered. I'll try it again someday
on a different machine. :)

        Rofl....this is one for the SBS list I think.....

         

        Does the built in defragger actually do anything?? As to your
question, I don't have an answer as I do not defrag my disks them being
scsi raid 'n all that.

        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? :)
