NTFS/FAT Disk Defragmentation in RAID and SAN Environments
Overview There is a common misconception that disk defragmentation is not necessary in RAID or SAN/NAS storage environments. This paper explains how disk defragmentation really works and how it can deliver significant benefits to RAID or SAN/NAS storage. The idea that disk defragmentation software is not necessary on RAID or SAN storage arises from a misunderstanding of how disk defragmentation software works and how it interacts with the disk controller software in these environments. At the core of this issue is the common perception that disk defragmentation software directly shuffles around disk clusters. That belief is incorrect.
