I would hate that 750K partition unless is fully defragged with
PerfectDisk 10 and even so the MFT would be big and searching a file a pain.

Exactly, thanks for the correction, I end up getting to the same
conclusion but is very reassuring when a English Language native give

your own and writing/saying phrases/sentences that won't make sense on
either language.
