DISK DEFRAGMENTER by
Bob
Just curious. Does the disk defragmenter in Win 98
overwrite the empty space on the disk when it defragments?
I know the defragmentation process reorganizes disk data
so everything gets put back in its place for more
efficient access, but what about overwriting empty space?
Thanks. Bob
