Well... even though there are some big advantages to having a large RAID setup, there\'s some disadvantages too.

I recently upgraded my setup, and I have 240 gigs in a RAID setup, (3 80s), and this disk gets a lot of use.  Probably 1-2 gigs a day downloaded/deleted/moved.  I haven\'t defragged it in about 4 months... and I finally got around to doing it yesterday.  It was 99.9% fragmented, with the most fragments in a file being 34000.  The largest free space was only 230k, even though I have 24 gigs free.  

It\'s been defragging for 30 hours now... it\'s at 22%.  lol.

30% now... another week or so :p

I think I\'ve horribly slowed it down, though by starting to use my computer in the background again for shareaza, newsbin, irc, and surfing.

*EDIT*
Well...  I accidentally stopped it at 92%, but whatever.  It took a week to do that.  I figured out why though.  Stupid, stupid me... I forgot to turn something off after my latest re-install.  ;)
