defrag

[Valtam]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3#Disadvantages Ext3+ file systems do not require defragging, in fact there is a warning in that article about using e2defrag.

Is it defragmented now or do I still have to tell it to defrag it?

No, you haven't defragmented the drive and no, it doesn't need to be defragmented.

In reply #8 look in the picture about 3/4 of the way down. See the item:

Fragmentation score 1

00-30 no problem
31-55 a little bit fragmented
56-  needs defrag

Your fragmentation score is 1 which means the drive is not fragmented.

Does that make sense?

Yes thanks, it does make sense.
