Christopher, >"Is 'optimization' worth the effort on a HD?" Does the SUN rise in the east? IMHO, YES! I work in an office with 4 AMIGA's with 233 megs worth of Hard Drives. OPTIMIZATION increases disk access up to 400%!!! And, the programs load faster! We Optimize the Hard Drives once every eight weeks along with a complete Hard Drive Back-Up. With 3 of the Amiga's in use 8 hours a day and the fourth about 3 hours per day, I'd say within a year's time we probably FREE-UP at least 168 hours of work-time (one-week) that would have been wasted WAITING for Hard Drive access and WAITING for files to load. — Gary Lucas —
