What are the benefits of Defraging?  I'm always weary of such tools that
move my data around on the disks fearing that it might cause a problem.  Do
you do a backup first?

Is it a good idea to do this?  Has anyone suffered any ill effects of
Defraging with any of the vendors' tools?

I'd like to look into this.  Sherry from Lund calls me religiously each
month and I provide the same "I haven't installed it yet" response.

Similarly, although I have MPEX, I've never XLTRIM'd any files due to the
cautionary statement that was provided in the manual.  I always figured
disc(k) was cheap, so just get more.

I look forward to your replies.
