A method and system for rapid data-fragmentation analysis of a file-allocation-table (FAT) file system is described. One illustrative embodiment reads into a memory of a computer a FAT associated with a storage medium of the computer, the storage medium having a plurality of clusters, each cluster having an associated entry in the FAT; and analyzes, substantially without accessing a directory table associated with the storage medium, the FAT to estimate the extent of data fragmentation on the storage medium. |
