RAID & ADVFS defragment

Good morning (afternoon, nigth...) ALPHA gurus!

Here is a simple question:

Is it meaningful to defragment an advfs domain which is on a RAID 0
or RAID 5 hardware ? Since advfs does'nt know (i guess) where the file
are actually located, is it usefull to defragment or not ?

I'm defragmenting such domains at night by cron, but I'm wasting time?

Thank you for any reply,
Emanuele
