Do you really mean defrag or do you mean chkdsk? If there's bad sectors, you should run chkdsk before defrag. It's normally not a good idea to start moving files around (that's what defrag does) with bad sectors still present in the disk...
In fact, sometimes defrag even recommends to run chkdsk if it detects the need to do so.
