Defrag & OS X

Posted by BM5k on August 06, 2007 at 06:05 AM

Ok. I know that OS X doesn’t normally require disk defrag. However, I have a sizeable external storage RAID (1TB) with hundreds of files in the 600 mb to 1.5 gb size range. These have all been added & edited & moved around at random over the last year or so. Not to mention the drive also houses my & my wifey’s iTunes libraries. I tend to use the internal drive in my MacBook Pro to create & organize the files, then store them on the external drive. Most, if not all, editing happens once the files are on the external drive.

Long rant. Short questions.

Is it worth paying money for a 3rd party defrag utility?

Are there any “better” programs?

This is the utility I’m leaning towards purchasing.
