Does the disk on which the files intended for building the ISO image are stored need to be defragmented? |

No, it doesn't have to be like that, it doesn't matter, the files are copied byte by byte to the output file, the output file, i.e. the ISO image, also doesn't have to be saved on a disk that is defragmented, because when burning it to a CD-R it will be transferred byte by byte in the correct order, so that the burned CD-R will not be fragmented, this is the specificity of the file system of this medium. |
