Which Is The Best Defrag Software For Windows Xp

Which is the best DEFRAG Software for Windows XP ?

[dysektor]

Search. :rolleyes:

But anyways, most people like VoptXP, Diskeeper or O & O Defrag.

I just defrag with the windows tool ;)

I know that speeddisk and others may do a better job, but oh well - it doesnt make a huge performance difference anyway

I may have posted an incomplete thread ... what i wanted this thread to have is a REVIEW of all the major DEFRAG software used with XP, Please post ur opinions and comments about the one you like to use and why u like to use.

PerfectDisk 2000. :)

SpeedDisk and the Windows XP Defragger clash. I believe you should turn off XP's 3-day defrag cycle if you use SpeedDisk because they undo each other's changes.

[T@RicK]

How do u do that ... turn off the 3 day routine

Ok, this is like the 10th thread about defraggin in the last 2 weeks. Just use diskeeper people!!

[gtksxp]

Diskeeper 7. The BEST. Period.

[dysektor]

Tariq, do a search at TweakXP. I do not remember the registry setting.

I, however, like VoptXP and O & O Defrag better than Diskeeper...

[WiNnErPL]

Another vote for diskeeper here

[AGMW]

Diskeeper without a doubt.

I have tried all the defrag softwares, but found O&O to be the one that does a thorough job. Two thumbs up for O&O :yes:

[Insanity_Check]

wouldn't it be nice if file systems didn't fragment? i heard that the new linux filesystems don't fragment. is this true? (don't answer unless you know for a fact) :huh:

[Xahid]

Diskeeper 7 for me !

it really rocks ! at least in my case, it speeds up about 30% !!! :laugh:

I've also tried O&O defrag, but it have lots of useless option for newbie!!!

and i didn't see any difference in performance after using O&O (with its diff. methods)

yea one thing more, its very slower then diskeeper !!!

Linux filesystems do fragment. Generally at a slower rate than NTFS/FAT32, though. ext3/reiserfs don't even have a defrag program, if that tells you anything. XFS has one, but it's not in as widespread use as ext3/reiserfs (for the average user anyways).

As for windows - Diskeeper is the best.

oh yes, another lazy ass post yet another "best defrag" thread. :no: :angry:

too freakin lazy to search msgboard
