Re: Disk Scanning & Defragmentation

The joke doesn't apply. Unnecessary defragging will simply wear the disk out
faster for no good reason.

I've been told during Windows 98 days that it's good to run Scandisk
and Defragmentation regularly to keep the computer spick and span.
Does it still apply to these days of Windows XP and Vista?

As a matter of fact I carry out these maintenance measures every
week, but would like to know their relevance in the present day
software environment.


[Joke shortened]

Doctor is leaning over a fallen actor on the stage of a Yiddish theater
around the turn of the last century.

From the back of the balcony, a Yiddisha-mama voice cries out: "Give him
an enema!"

The doctor stands and shouts back: "Madam, the actor is dead!"

Same voice from the balcony, a bit more sheepishly: "So, it can't hurt."
