I found hard drive fragmentation to be a minor issue under OS-9.  My 
"defrag" routine was to DSAVE /h0 /h1 ! SHELL, sometime during the day then 
CHD  /h1, CHX  /h1/CMDS and FORMAT /h0 and then just before I went to bed, 
DSAVE /H1 /H0 ! SHELL.  By morning the files had been copied and were 
defragmented.  The increase in efficiency was often noticeable, but seldom 
notable.
