Norton SpeedDisk is a breeze in Win98. If you have dual boot with 98 defrag in Win98. Speed Disk is slow in XP. I use SpeedDisk in Win98 and defrag all the drives including the XP parition.
system mechanic's disk defragger is good... u can have optimized defrag, full defrag.... depending on mode speed changes... System Mechanic is an ultimate system mechanic
Thats it geek_rohit
I was doing it for a long time. But in some of the XP partion, it refuses to defrag because of 'illegal long file name' and want to run NDD. I am hesitant to do it. Is it safe to run NDD in XP partition from 98 ? If so 'geek_rohit' you are great. Thanx again
It allows you to choose your files and folders from the drive and you can exactly move/relocate them in your HDD where it should be(Outer tracks have less access time). BUT ITS NOT GOOD FOR BEGINNERS. I have used Sys Mech & Diskeeper too but not....
I use Raxco's Perfect Disk 8 and am happy with it. It is realy fast when dealing with small files.But when it comes to large video files it takes a long time but I presume that is normal.I usually leave it to defrag my Video partition in the background and carry on with my other work.When it comes to defrag the large 300GB back up external drive, I start the defragging at night before retiring and by morning it is over.So I have never run out of patience and Perfect Disk is Microsoft approved. But still the built in Defragmenter in Microsoft Windows, I understand, is courtesy Diskkeeper. I also tried the free defraggler of CCleaner stable . but found that it was much much slower than Perfect Disk 8.My advice would be there is no point in looking for a fast defragmenter. Stick with one and allow it to do the task at its own pace. If necessary do the defragging at night and go to sleep.
