| 667183 | 2008-05-07 22:44:00 | the performance increase by defraging modern hard drives, even in realtime is almost nil. older hdds under like 40 or 80 gig yea but with hard drives these days in the 100's of gig range, theres no point | williamF (115) | ||

IObit SmartDefrag can be used manually instead if that is what you prefer. It has a setting that determines the level of processor use above which it will not run. |

| 667185 | 2008-05-08 05:48:00 | Do any of the on-demand defragers really improve on the one that comes with Windows? | Vince (406) | ||
| 667186 | 2008-05-08 06:02:00 | Anything is better than the windows defragger . Unless you want to spend all year using the windows one . Since, it usually restarts, and goes round in circles, everytime something accesses the hdd . Unless you enjoy defragging in safe mode |
