NOTE: Requires Sysinternals "contig", as this is a graphical interface for it. Contig is a second nomination below: (1) PROGRAM NAME: Power Defragmenter (2) LINK: http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Power-Defragmenter-Download-20185.html Home Site (down presently) http://www.excessive-software.eu.tt/ (3) DESCRIPTION: Power Defragmenter is a very advanced GUI for the Sysinternals core application which takes defragmentation process to a whole new level. Power Defragmenter is a GUI (Graphic User Interface) application for program Contig by Sysinternals. Contig is a very powerful defragmentation application designed for Windows NT/2000/XP operating systems. Contig created by Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell. ------- (1) PROGRAM NAME: Contig (2) LINK: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897428.aspx (3) DESCRIPTION: There are a number of NT disk defraggers on the market, including Winternals Defrag Manager. These tools are useful for performing a general defragmentation of disks, but while most files are defragmented on drives processed by these utilities, some files may not be. In addition, it is difficult to ensure that particular files that are frequently used are defragmented - they may remain fragmented for reasons that are specific to the defragmentation algorithms used by the defragging product that has been applied. Finally, even if all files have been defragmented, subsequent changes to critical files could cause them to become fragmented. Only by running an entire defrag operation can one hope that they might be defragmented again. Contig is a single-file defragmenter that attempts to make files contiguous on disk. Its perfect for quickly optimizing files that are continuously becoming fragmented, or that you want to ensure are in as few fragments as possible. |
