Default Re: Defragging external hard drive?

If it is scsi, FWB software is cool, or the disk setup under your Utilities folder.
For crying out loud!

Per Digi's own OSX recommendations, which can be found at the top of this very forum section, use Apple's own Disk Utility.

"-Make sure all drives are formatted Mac OS Extended (HFS+) with OS X’s Disk Utility. Pro Tools can not use UFS or HFS volumes. If the drive was originally formatted in OS 9 or with any other application, backup the drive and reinitialize it with Disk Utility. If Journaling is enabled on your hard drive, disable it."

Go read the rest - it can't hurt.
