Do raptors get fragmented really fast or something?

[Compddd]

Had my Raptor a week and checked defrag, 47% file fragmentation and 23% overall fragmentation!!!!!!! Granted I had to UN-ISO alot of big files for my games and backups and stuff, but this is 47% after a weeks useage! Something wrong here?

Hows it run?

Im wondering if a VIA KT600 with the new southbridge and a Raptor will be worth it or not...

Raptor is sweet. I have been using one for almost a month as the boot/app drive in my PC. Very fast and quiet!

Cool! I am going to sit on the Athlon64 for better revisions, now I just have to see if I can find a Raptor and KT600 cheap enough. Good deals on a raptor would be much appreciated...

Raptor is great, fast and quiet. I like my system being pure SATA, hate PATA cables. So its the Raptor for OS/Games + Seagate 80GB Sata for Storage
