Defrag Tools

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.

Cheers,

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..
