    I bought a new iMac 2.8GHz with a 350 internal HD about a month or so ago. Should I defrag before I install both parallels & windows?

    Thanks

    No, you need only create partition

    Yes, though I was reading horror stories about boot camp

    users who did not defrag first did not achieve successful installs. Thanks & Ill go peak @ Apple discussions.

    Looking forward to using the software!

    When disk is emty no defragmentation is needed, only when some data is there
