Data Recovery Fact

Fragmented

In parts. A fragmented file does not have its content stored sequentially on the media. The file's content may be stored in small segments scattered over an area of the disk. The file system keeps track of where the data is stored and the user does not normally notice a file is fragmented. Fragmentation is common on hard drives, but usually data is stored sequentially on tapes.
