I dont understand what it's supposed to do but anyway, im defragging my main drive right now and it looks like this... Before:  After: waiting It says i've over an hour til its done, but i dont know what im shooting for since ive never physically seen before/after pics. Theres also so many modes and its all mumbo jumbo to me -_- halp. btw, does my disk look bad? lol.

basicly it puts all your files in the correct order. therefore your computer is nice and tidy and it works faster.

Defragmenting takes all the pieces of a file and puts them next to each other on your hard disk. It allows for quicker access to files since the computer doesn't have to search the whole harddrive in multiple places for the file.
Diskeeper is an awesome program for this FYI. Costs some money, but well worth it. My comp has run better than ever since I installed it after my last reformat and my harddrive has run much cooler than it used to (have a laptop).
