Thanks for the reply. Now I'm curious....how? Does it defrag "on the
fly?" Or, at set times?

I'm a new Mandrake 10 user. What do most of you use to defrag your hard
drives?
Thanks, Michael
Shouldn't be necessesary to defrag with linux. It does it by itself.

Depends on the filesystem you are using. The journaling filesystems do
it with each access. and the other linux filesystems usually do it
during the bootup process. Linux uses the drive a lot more wisely than
windows and usually doesn't get frageed up badly. It will usually do a
fsck on the drive at boot. Hope this helps. There are others out there
that can explain it better than I.
