Disk fragmentation after backup

I got heavily disk fragmented after a full database backup. The disks
configured in RAID 10 and used to store just 1 full backup file daily. I
used the option "with init" on the backup statement. If you have experience
this or know the solution to this issue, please help. Thanks!
Relax. Is it really affecting performance? How do you know?

|||Try deleting the file once just before you do the full backup. If the disk
does not have other files on it then the new file should be contiguous.
