OS/2 Hard Drive Utilities

Comment:

I need to know if OS/2 has any hard drive utilities (ie, scandisk, defrag, cleanup)? We have a minimal version of OS/2 Warp 3.0 that is for a VTC Multi-point Conferencing Server. I haven't found anything yet even after visiting "HAL". If you have anything I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Brynn

Please disregard previous message! Found out that OS/2 does not defrag a hard drive and there is no need for the afore mentioned utilities. Thanks, Brynn

As far as I know, using HPFS, there shoud be no need of cleaning, defrag or whatever.

HPFS, like any filesystem, can indeed fragment. My utilities fix this.
