[comp.sys.atari.8bit] Hard Drive Question

nin15b0b@merrimack.edu (David E. Sheafer, Class of 1989) (11/08/90)

   Is anyone aware of a program that checks the fragmentation (and unfragments)
it for Hard Drives?

   Any info would be greatly apreciated.

  DAvid Shaeffer asks about fragmentation detectors and defragmentors for the
ATari 8-bit hard drives.

  Answer: Yes, there is a detector but no defragmentor as of yet.  I am 
working on one, but it will be a few months still before I finish it.
Also, it works for SpartaDOS only.  You shouldn't be using DOS XE, and
MyDOS simply isn't as good. (IMHO of course :)

 There is a program to check the fragmentation on hard drives on the
 ICD bbs.  It called CHKFRAG.ARC
