Question about texture replacement programs (X Graphics for example) and defragging

Recommended Posts

I have always wondered this. When I install a large amount of new files I always defrag before flying. When using programs that replace textures (FE, GE, XG...), do the replacement textures remain in the same place on the disk or do I need to defragment after changing them?
