Me too, it's fast with a Dual Core if you give it high priority, and easy to do on a weekly basis, used in conjunction with CCleaner.

Auslogics Disk Defrag

JkDefrag v3.36

My top 3 are JkDefrag, Auslogics Disk Defrag and Defraggler.
It is usually the most popular belief that JkDefrag is the best of the three, but I have not noticed any difference between the three.

Hey Greg. I use Disk keeper. It runs in the background and that is great for me.

Just something else that I do not have to be concerned with.

Disk Keeper is good, I use the Intel Desktop Utilities where you get the free Disk Keeper 9.0 version. It is a little on the old side - but it is free.

Thanks for the reply's guys I read some reviews, and since majority of the recommendations I got here were for Auslogics I am going to give it a shot see how it works out for me.

Weird... Linux doesn't seem to have any defrag programs... what a rip...

Actually this is incorrect there are defragment programs even though the only time you need them is when your file system would be around 80% full or higher thanks to ext3 and now ext4.

The reason why you do not see much talk about defragging Linux is because it is often that a person will have done a complete reinstall before needing to defrag.

Weird, I'm literally not seeing any in my Package Manager... Guess I'm missing a few resources. lol

Que sera, if need by I'll just reformat and upgrade since I'm on Ubuntu and haven't moved up to 8.10 yet.
