All the IIgs defrag programs were for ProDOS partitions only so the
largest partition they can handle is 32mb.
A long time ago I tried to use a IIgs defrag program on an HFS
partition. As I recall it at first refused to try but on the third try
promptly
turned the HFS partution into giberish. Had to reformat that drive :-o
For HFS partitions your best bet would be something like a $10 Mac
SE30.
