Ok, point taken, but.. 25% of the disk, so that the one it refused to 
move is smack in the middle of the part I need to use? lol Rather have 
it move all the ones that are likely to change to the end of the 
contiguous area, so that the likely amount of fragmentations is less, 
while still leaving the *end* of the disk free of random files. But, 
maybe I am just overly picky... :p
