Using Disk Defragmenter
Windows NT does not include Disk Defragmenter.
The Disk Defragmenter program helps maintain the integrity of the hard
drive by rearranging files so that unused space on the drive is not scattered
around the drive, but is contained in one contiguous area on the disk.
You may notice, after running Disk Defragmenter, that the programs run a
little faster and more efficiently. That is because the hard drive head can go
directly to the data it needs instead of skipping around to different places on
the disk to find pieces of data.
