First OS X defrags itself (files up to 20 or 30 MB I don't remember).
Second use Techtools but be wary, some have had troubles after the operation (to be confirmed: it's supposed to be safe now). Don't approach Norton even in dreams ! In fact for you system, clone it, and store it safely, for other drives partitions, save the files elsewhere (time to back up) and reformat the partiton, that way, it'll be clean and sure and it cost you the back up time and support. For the cloning, use either the Apple disk utility, or Xupport, a little shareware which among things can clone specified parts of you drives. -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
