Contiguous file as those files that are on the hard drive in one 
continues length.

That is the opposite to fragmented files which parts of the file are 
scattered all over the disk wherever there is available space.

Files change to contiguous when you de-fragment the disk.

Contiguous files can be read by the computer faster than fragment 
files as the hard drive heads are not having to seek all the parts of 
the file data.

So it is best to de-fragment on a regular basis.
