Hello,
It seems to me that there is no need for defrag; and there **is** a
change between resizing with ntfsresize and gparted.
According to "man ntfsresize":
"Defragmentation is NOT required prior to resizing because the
program can relocate any data if needed, without risking data integrity."
and also:
"Similarly to other command line filesystem resizers, ntfsresize doesn’t
manipulate the size of the partitions, hence to do that you must use
a disk partitioning tool as well, for example fdisk(8)."
Regards,
Rami Rosen
