You could be onto something! I'd just assumed the partition wouldn't be
fragmented cos it was only created last week and it was less than 50%
full. All I'd done was restored a load of files, reduced the size by
3GB, then left it.

However I just booted into XP, ran the defragmenter and it's in
atrocious state. Just the 'Anlayse' portion took several minutes. After
deleting loads of files (down to 30% of 300GB) and 90 minutes
defragmenting the progress had only reached 6% - I'm not sure whether to
continue with that.

Note I backed up and restored using Rsync - I guess that was a bad idea.
