A noob question about moving specific files to end of partition

[soulburner]

My question was probably answered already, but I couldn't find anything interesting while browsing and searching the forums, so here goes.

I would like to modify the OptimizeDaily, Weekly and Monthly scripts to do the following:
1. move video files (*.avi, *.mkv, etc) and disk image files (*.iso, etc) to the end of partition;
2. do not touch these files during the next defragmentation (like, attempt to move them to the end of disk again) unless they got fragmented

Thanks in advance and sorry if it was mentioned already!

Normally, these files don't fragment. Plus, if they're already at the end of the volume, they can't be moved there again.

Put this as the first zone of your scripts:

Code:

FileSelect
  FileName("*.iso")
  or FileName("*.mkv")
  or FileName("*.avi")
FileActions
  MoveToEndOfDisk()
FileEnd

Edit: Replaced the second ".iso" with ".avi".

[Kasuha]

FileSelect
  FileName("*.iso")
  or FileName("*.mkv")
  or FileName("*.iso")
FileActions
  MoveToEndOfDisk()
FileEnd

Use *.avi for one of these two.

And personally I'd recommend doing this action as the last one, not as first - so that eventual files high up on the disk are shaken down first. But that would require excluding these files from every preceding zone.

Ah, a c&p error  . I've corrected it.
