It would seem that a multi session RW might be fragmented. If so, the only
way I know to "defrag" is to collect all the contents in a burner program,
make a backup or image, and rerecord the RW. I always thought that each
individual session could not be fragmented, but I've been known to be wrong
on rare occasions. <G>

With Nero InCD and Roxio Drag-To-Disk you certainly can delete only one
file. I can see where the O/P is coming from. I know of no way to
check/defrag a rewritable CD or DVD.

I use a CD-RW disk to store backup files. I update the files on this
backup
disk from time to time. Because of this, I suspect the data on the disk
is
probably fragmented.
They're not. There's no such thing as erasing one file, and therefore
there's no way for a gap to open up. It's those gaps from erased
files that create fragmentation on a hard drive.
