Do you defrag your mac?

[Spit]

Just wondering if you need to. Got my imac with 1TB and it just crossed my mind. There is no defragger in OSX though?

No, the file system is not broken

If you want to force things, open terminal and type..

sudo periodic daily

sudo periodic weekly

sudo periodic monthly

That will run the maintenance scripts, that usually run at 3am.

So thats why my mac wakes up at 3am

As EVH says HFS+ is not a broken file system like say *sucks air through teeth* NTFS.

The only time you'll have fragmentation occur drastically on a HFS+ filesystem is if you are close to filling the drive. Obviously this is by design...
