I'm pretty sure Norton's Speed Disk did just that

133336 2003-04-05 22:58:00 You won't get that result on a NTFS drive, I use VoptXP V7, it has a lot of handy utils bundled with it. Dak2 (1963)

You can somehow look like this: sal.neoburn.net Defrag.gif

if your using NTFS. Not as easy as FAT32 systems.

133342 2003-04-12 00:41:00 The Student: Why do you have so many little partitions? If you don't mind me asking. :-)

I always thought each partition hogged a fair bit of hard drive space to write the FAT (or whatever it is) so the more you have, the more space is wasted. Unless I have got it all wrong, of course.
