Hi,
I recently converted a (don't laugh) 15 gig hard drive to NTFS (curiosity
got the best of me) running XP Pro and now SP2. I notice a LOT more disk
activity than when it was FAT, especially during start up. I have fast find
turned off. However, I also notice a drastic time reduction to defrag the
drive. When it was FAT it use to take 3 - 4 hours using Norton Speed disk or
it's own defragmenter. Now, it takes about 20 - 30 minutes.
Any comments on the greatly increased disk activity??
Thanks In Advance
