[QUOTE="jawbroken, post: 31583, member: 14372"] Reformatting is useful for other things than fragmentation. Registry bloat, especially, is a major factor in loss of performance in windows. But yes, defragmenting often is important for performance. Setting up an auto-fragment at a certain time each day/week or when the drive is above a certain amount of fragmentation and is not currently in use. Just have to make sure defragmenting isn't occuring at the same time as recording, as it is rather system intensive (depending on the program used, etc). A program other than the windows defragmenter is much preferred as the windows defragmenter is worthless in my opinion. Slow, poor scheduling options, etc. [/QUOTE]
