File System Fragmentation
File system fragmentation
occurs when data is not stored in
contiguous sectors
on a disk, leading to slower read and
write times
as the disk head must move to
multiple locations
to access a file. This can degrade
system performance
over time, necessitating defragmentation to reorganize the data for
improved efficiency
.
