    a unix file system does not need to be de-frag'd because it is impossible to fragment a UNIX hard drive.

    unless you are writing directly to the drive via command line and dynamically partitioning it as you write the data, a UNIX drive will not fragment the incoming data across sectors.

    it is literally impossible for UNIX to not write data sectors against one another; this is a primary reason for it's stability over a FAT32 file structure.
