That'd be my thought as well; the machine is essentially a file server, and 99% of it is pretty much static...once a file's defragged, there's no reason it should be shuffled around the next time the defrag process runs. I suspect the indexing service.

I agree. I turned indexing off on my machine and instead use Agent Ransack for searching, it's faster, easier to use and has more options also it's free.

This is an insidious conspiracy by the mother of GOG, MAGOG, to infect the minds of thousands of furloughed government workers, and turn them into meat-puppets to be used as life-energy fodder for the Alien Masters during the Great Swarm, as Rahu approaches Saturn in the Tula zodiac: [^].

Yes, but that was fixable! Just reformat and install Win7, or Linux...or DOS even.

Hey, I like Windows 8! I like the live tiles (especially the weather one [if it is actually updated at that time], since the weather here has been kind of bizarre lately [thunderstorm one minute, bright sun the next]). I also like the extreme speed of execution that Win8 has.
EDIT: execution == running programs.
