I'm defragin my harddrives for the first time since I put the slave in. I have a total space of 100G. How long am I lookin at before it's done? I don't know if it matters but it's a P3 800Mhz with 512Mb of RAM

jeebus.. depends how much space is used? and how long it's been since you defragged last?
If you only have like 10gb used it won't take that long (~30mins)
If you only have like 10gb and it's been a year since you defragged last it could take well over a hour.

I'd say a general rule of thumb is 30mins per 10gb with processor speed of 1ghz/512mb.

That's very very very general though. YMMV =P

I just let mine run overnight.

BOOO!!! I set it up wrong and it only ended up defragin the C drive. I was already fast asleep by the time it was done though. Guess I'll have to set it up again tonight to defrag the other 3... Thanks though :thumbsup
