Q: What happens when you fill a cabinet that is designed to hold 100 folders with 95 folders, many of which are crammed full of papers?Hi all I know hard drives tend to not run well when near full. They have trouble performing self adjustments (hardware), self defragging(unix/FFS) etc.. (as I can express it) However, I need to find some documentation or some help in explaining this better. I am working with some people who store loads of files, on many drives and tend to fill the drives to 95% and more and then can't understand why they become unstable. I need to be able to explain it better and I would also like to know more to be able to factually/sanely set a percent full safe limit.
Any help would be appreciatted
A: It gets much harder to put more folders in or to put more "stuff" in the existing folders. And papers start to stick out and catch on the top of the drawer because they no longer fit.
