From what I have observed here and there on this and other sites, the maintenance programs of choice appear to be Tech Tool Pro and Disk Warrior. I have them both! Let's start a thread here where we discuss our experiences running maintenence scripts, and these fine tools! I will start the ball rolling with the following questions? Do I run Tech Tool first, followed by Disk Warrior?, let's say...once a week for maintence? Or only when there's trouble? Do I run them separate? Are there times for one and not the other? Do I de frag my drives with Tech Tool or let Disk Warrior do it?...Let's see what kind of answers we get out there....

If you realy want this thread to take off, just post it in OS X Audio and everywhere else put a link to it. That way you will probably get a lot more feedback.
The thread is a good idea though.
