It is pretty well documented that any area you use for disk staging should be defragmented regularly.

Has anyone heard of this issue? I have an environment where NBU 5.1 (plans to get to 6.5.1 are in the works) is backing up to disk then staging to tape.
The admins tell me that the area where the backups are going gets very fragmented after each backup.  It is a Windows box, using NTFS.
