Best Defrag Tool?

I use Diskeeper and never had any problems.

It's funny to analyse your fragmented disk with XP, screenshot it, and then install a good degfragmenter and compare.

XP basically analysed about 5% of my disk had fragmented red files.

Diskeeper displayed a hell of a lot more.

Someone may correct me, but i believe the creators behind diskeeper are the ones behind the defrag tool in XP. Mind you it doesn't seem like they finished it :p

Auslogics defrag is now what I use. Very very fast and very light to run as well. Highly recommended :)

Edit - and it's free too :)

I think this may be a long term solution, my little analyze graph has gone from 80% red to 0% red after 2 defrags :D PC seems to be running muuurch smoother :)

Now to see if it works!
 
I would love to use O&O but it doesn't work! :( Any ideas on fixing that would be appreciated too.

Auslogic is working fine - just removed over 110gb of un-encoded Fraps recordings now I have a huge hole in hdd. Defragging again usign Auslogic :)

WishI could get O&O working - I used it in the past and it was very good.

Now it seems to not install the service on any of the defraggers. PerfectDisk works fine though because it doesn't use a service.

Do you not see PDAgent and PDEngine running then? I have both on manual so they run when I run PerfectDisk but not before.

I didn't look when i was trying it. It said could not connect to service so I went and found O&O service and it wouldn't start.

Google turned up no answers either.

I think im addicted to defragging now - ran it 4 times just to make sure its still 0% fragmented files!

Feast your eyes on this! It gives a decent (if a little anal) analysis of pretty much every defragger available.

Quick summary: diskeeper ain't great, perfectdisk and vopt are pretty good, the freeware Jkdefrag comes up smelling of roses, the much touted auslogics comes out smelling of faeces, and several commercial defraggers have stolen the source code of Jkdefrag by selling products based on it.....

For the record, I use UltimateDefrag.

;)

Hmm...trying JKdefrag now, seems very good, but a lot slower than Auslogic's one.

Edit - Any my hard drive image is exactly the same as it is for Auslogics. I think they're equally good just that the latter is much much faster!
