You are wrong, I didn't use the option where it only moves files. C'mon I wasn't
born yesterday. I defragmented the entire disk and all free space was placed to t
the end in 27 minutes (292Megs). At the end I check the disk directory map using
DisExpress, Symantec Tools and CMS Utils, all three showed that all files were moved
mover to the beginning of the directory.
