When I switched to Linuw 12 month ago, this was my first question !
I was told that there were no software to defrag in Linux, and that the
file system was inherently much less prone to fragmentation in the first
place.
Basically, I was told not to worry about it. 

Then again, that was 12 month ago, and Linux is moving so fast,
things/opinions might have changed in the meantime ??
