            If you were puting a 120 on an old slow computer it would take a
long time but on a new computer which runs faster it dosn't take any longer
than a small drive on an slow computer.  But keep in mind that with NTFS you
don't need to run the defrag and scan very often if ever (relative to how
long you keep your opperating system or computer).

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
