It could still be using one of several filesystems, each of which will handle fragmentation differently. Also, my other point about whether deleted recordings are deleted or just marked as such in TiVo's database (which I imagine is probably the case as it would make it easier for TiVo to control when they're overwritten and also for the ability to un-delete them by simply changing the database entry) still stands. Even though the used space gauge only reflects your own recordings, suggestions and deleted recordings are still taking up space on the disk which means new recordings risk fragmentation.
