Reviewed by: Seth Rosenblatt on November 07, 2008
Join your hard drive fragments together into a tight bunch with this freeware. Auslogics Disk Defrag's interface couldn't be any cleaner or easier to use.
Choose a hard drive from an easy-to-read pull-down menu, and Disk Defrag instantly displays the drive's size, and used and free space. The program even displays a pie graph for visual learners. One click starts the defragmentation process. The program's defrag process screen displays another handy visual. A sector map makes it easy to see how much of the drive is fragmented, allocated, or free. As the program churns away, the defragged sectors are displayed in blue.
We found the program fast, even on older XP systems. A handy HTML report is prepared after each defrag session. A summary displays the total files and folders defragged, while the detail section lists the defrag outcome for each file. We only wish a final sector map was included in the report. Novices to system administrators will love this easy-to-use hard drive defrag program.

Publisher's description
From Auslogics Software :Disk fragmentation leads to system slowdowns, PC crashes, slow startup and shutdown and sometimes to system failures. Auslogics Disk Defrag is designed for fast optimization of today's modern hard disks. Get the maximum performance out of your expensive hardware investments. And it's absolutely free. Hard disks are by far the slowest component in your computer. CPU and memory work much faster than hard disks because they do not have moving parts. Therefore fragmented disks often become a bottleneck of the system performance. Besides causing slowdowns, fragmentation makes the hard drive disk heads move frequently when reading files which leads to freeze-ups and system crashes. It is important to keep your disks defragmented and optimized as much as possible.
Version 1.6.24.355 fixed bugs that led to program freezes,Fixed localization files,Minor bug fixes.

Version: Auslogics Disk Defrag 1.6.24.355
Pros: Quick. Does not waste time checking everything twice.
Cons: Some things should be checked twice.
Summary: After using Disk Defrag a few times and being very satisfied I attempted to do a system backup using Ghost. ERROR. Having just done a defrag I thought to try another to see if that would remove the error messages. No luck, and I had no idea how I w... read more >>

Version: Auslogics Disk Defrag 1.6.24.355
"better than vistas native defrag tool and easy to use"
Pros: 1. easy to use, clear easy to understand gui
3. status bar detailing its overall progress
4. displays the name of the file it is working handy if there any corrupted files on your system.
5. reports detailing the files that were fragmented etcCons: 1. inability to schedule a monthly defrag, the only option available is weekly (more in this later!).
2. annoying comment saying system is not optimized at the end of each defrag - a marketing ploy to sucker people into buying stuff they dont needSummary: this is a great bit of software. the native vista defrag utility is pants compared to this. unlike xp the vista utility went back in time and removed any visual indications as to what the defrag utility is actually doing, they didnt even include a s... read more >>
