You're right, Malatesta, there is no harm in trying. And since I sync 10-40Meg videos daily I would be interested to know. I do, however question the validity of the article since it referred to a 'benchmark' in a forum that mentioned "5-10% performance degradation" in a matter-of-fact way. The links were all focused on formatting and FAT tables rather than controlled experiments on defragmentation. But at this point it's like you said, "there's no harm in taking a minute."
