Yes, it's called Mac OS X, and it's already installed on your G5.
Mac OS X automatically defragment disks... Nothing needs to be done.

Yes. When an application tries to open a file which is fragmented, Mac OS X will transparently defragment it before opening it.
Welcome to the Mac world

Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.

Hey, you didn't spell Mac with all caps. You already win, no need to apologize for being new. 
Hope you enjoy you G5, btw.
