First off let me pose a question: Norton speed disk or Windows defragmentor, is there any difference, which is better?
My computer within 2 weeks gets to like 30-40% total file fragmentation as reported by Norton. It gets so bad it craws along like a snail until I defragment it. System restore always has the greatest amount of fragments so I turned it off on all drives to see what happens. It seems to me this should not be happening. My computer is used for Internet surfing and games no heavy file usage at all. Seems to me this all started several month back when I decided to go to NTSF instead of Fat32, but from my research NTFS is supposed to better at controlling file framentations. I never had this problem running Fat32. Any thoughts? Thanks.
