no defragging..
go to utilities / disk utility / select drive/ hit repair permissions

you have to edit your config.sys and put more buffers there

You don't need to defrag on OSX.
Repair Permissions only fixes faults on some file types... quite a different thing...

On-the-fly Defragmentation
When a file is opened on an HFS+ volume, the following conditions are tested:If the file is less than 20 MB in size
If the file is not already busy
If the file is not read-only
If the file has more than eight extents
If the system has been up for at least three minutes
f all of the above conditions are satisfied, the file is relocated -- it is defragmented on-the-fly.

If I repair permissions, what happens exactly? Is any information lost?
