I'm unsure about the necessity for it, although I half-suspect it
might be required, or at least make the repartitioning tool's job a
lot easier.

On the plus side if you need to defrag lots of machines you can run
defrag in parallel :) - won't take weeks then (unless people need to
be using some computers).
