NTFS is the Windows high performance file system, initially designed for Windows NT to get around a lot of the problems of FAT. It has, however, a poor reputation for becoming very fragmented and then running very slowly.
Well, it turns out that Microsoft has the perfect solution to this problem:
1) Copy all of your files to another partition or disk drive.
2) Delete all of your files.
3) Copy all the files back.
Sounds like something that belongs in The Daily WTF.
My name is Dave Bryant, the author and sometimes philosopher of this website. I've been writing about theology and apologetics for the last few years and recently starting rambling a bit about politics and software development as well. More about me or contact me.
There is a complete archive of all articles I have written going back to 2000, and links to the most popular articles are available directly in this sidebar. New articles and other ramblings will first appear on the main page, and through the RSS feed (what is RSS?).
