Just copy your project to a new blank drive. Easily faster and more
reliable than any defrag software. I tried to defrag 70 GB of video
data once (on an 80 GB drive). It took 2 days, then crashed after 90%
complete, taking my project with it. I now own two 80 GB drives and
two 40 GB drives. Backup/defrag of a full drive takes less than an
hour or two and is far more secure.
