A disk won't get fragmented just because of I/O going on. It will get fragmented if you're appending to files after you've consolidated all of your free space (and packed the files in close to each other).
I call bullshit on this test, as I deal with 3-4 PCs getting benchmarked every day, and fragmentation only goes up minimally (ie. 3%) every few days.
