O & O defrag is the best on the market. You can defrag in stealth, space,
name, and file type or file name. I use 11 profesional. Nothing compares to
it. If you want free then Diskeeper is the best choice.

Never mind: Apparently you're talking about the screen display of
fragmentation is represented on the disk. Yes, those are pretty
inaccurate. I do recall a time you could tell what file each legend
on the screen represented, but that went the way of the dinosaur when
drives got so large.

Hi,

Which is the best defrag tool (free/paid)?
Whats the advantage of using a third-party defrag tool over Windows
built-in tool?

If you want to pay, get Diskeeper 2009. You already have a free one.
It is called Windows Defragmenter and works well enough.

I haven't tried PerfectDisk, but even Diskeeper sets the defrag
graphic to OFF by default in order to speed up the process overall.
There is no benefit to a defrag graphic. All it ever shows is that
the computer is doing something. Accurate it most definitely isn't..


Actually the O&O defrag tool lets you click on any of the boxes in its
graphical display and it will list the files in that cluster. I
find it quite nice.

O&O? What's its branded name? I might like to look at that but can't
find anything similar to O&O.
Thanks,
Twayne

This is version 11, and I have a much older copy. But I'm sure this is
it. That's Oh and Oh, not zero & zero by the way.
