This is for my backup and extra storage. I have no problems with
plugging it into
my Windows laptop and doing a defrag, but just wanted to find a better,
free, defrag
software so I can see the process and the health of the drive.
Diskeeper is great, but
I do not want to pay, if I can avoid it.
I know that Linux drives do not need defraging, but I need to be able to
plug it into any
Windows computer, without needing it to have an extra driver installed.
So NTFS is
what I get to use since W2K and newer systems can use it.

"only" for this list
or most of the time it is.
