It has to be one of the most thorough defragmenters on the market. http://www.paragon-software.com/home/total-defrag/ I use O&O Defrag; why haven’t you got Paragon Total Defrag listed?

I saw it many times. I dunno… anyone who hasn’t defragmented the drive for some months should notice a considerable improvement after defragging. I saw it many times.

The JKDefrag is abt 5 x times faster then default Windows defrag tool. I would say the main difference is defragging speed. The JKDefrag is abt 5 x times faster then default Windows defrag tool.

The new processors and fast hard drives make the results non-noticeable for any end-user speed comparison. I don't do. It just adds extra wear and tear on the HD causing an earlier death, than not doing... Doing the defrag process is so ‘old-school’.

Defragmenting a harddrive provides speed gain only with FAT disk systems and only has advantage if you might need to pursue some data recovery.
