"Ruining a harddrive"

Right now I have a basically empty harddrive with the exception of FSX and a couple more gigabytes of stuff. If I were to put 17 GBs of music on the harddrive, and then move it to an external, would the music leave a mark on the harddrive's speed of accessing files, like when playing FSX?

I don't think so, depends on the size of the disk though, if it's full after the FSX install and the music stored on it...

You can always defrag the drive once you've cleared the music off to sort things out

How do you defrag it and what exactly does it do?

Never run your games on an external. There is actually a accessing speed conflict thus slowing your load times down, something you don't want to do. Having your music on an external isn't bad though. Thats something I personally have setup.
