Huh?
Defrag is defrag. Put the disk blocks in sequence that can be read faster.
Not much else to it.
What a digression, even Win95 defragged.
Hopefully Win7 will be advanced enough not to need a defrag, like all the
other OSes. Sorry, I can't resist the dig here as Vista should do this
without the need for a third party product. Next issue, I too have the
problem with copy in. Now I can't see a SATA 150 being slower than a 100BT.
So what is the hold up? My Vista's own performance meter can't seem to go
much past 5mbs. Don't say it is network, as without a cable change using
Linux that goes to 100mbs, just under 20 times faster.
