My computer is in need of it and I was wondering what the best is.
Smart Defrag is decent.
Defraggler?
I always use MyDefrag - [url]http://www.mydefrag.com/[/url]
What makes a defragmentation program the best? Speed?
I use Defraggler.
defrag.exe c:

I might use this.
What is wrong with the one windows gave you? :colbert:
I use O&O defrag, not free though. But very nice.

Most people will say that.

Interesting Film, I quite enjoyed it.

It doesn't really have very many options, for example MyDefrag can shutdown the machine when it is finished defragmenting the drive. It also offers flash memory optimization for SSD/USB drives and can be run as a screensaver. Also something a lot of people don't know is that a mechanical hard disk reads data from the outside of the platter faster than on the inside, give this a read to see what I mean - [URL]http://www.pcguide.com/ref/hdd/geom/tracks_ZBR.htm[/URL] MyDefrag is designed to move the files as close to the beginning of the disk as possible to ensure the disk is storing and reading data efficiently.
Basically the Windows defrag only puts data "fragments" together. It doesn't really give the user many other options since the majority of people don't even defrag their disk anyway, of course a year later they wonder why their computer is so damned slow.

I saw the reviews on that, seems like quite a heartwarming film.
I use mydefrag, it may appear pretty advanced at first but once you've set it up to run automatically, it works a charm.

Pulsatingly fun
Fragmentation is for pussies using an inferior filesystem.
Microsoft needs to abondon their stupid shit and have support for more filesystem types.
Diskeeper. It's not free, and it runs in the background.
The whole time I have had it, my fragmentation had never gone above 2%, and I haven't manually defragged in months.
Defraggler
I defrag with my screensaver.

I've seen that video.
JKDefrag
Diskeeper, since everything else just uses APIs written by them since NT4 including the built in Windows defrag.
Defraggler is great if you just want flat out defragmentation. It has a few options, they included a boot defragger now it seems.
MyDefrag is damn near perfect though, the optimisation feature is very nice, but it can take 2 to 3'times longer to finish on the first few runs. Which is why I kick the defrag screensaver on, works wonders. Though I moved to Defraggler due to the time it takes to finish sometimes.
I use ultradefrag micro on windows. It defrags normally ie. it strictly fixes fragmentation, doesn't do any bullshit file-placement for better access times. thus it is fast. It also does compacting (for partition resizing)
I've actually ran most of the top Defraggers, and as I'm aware by comparison Diskeeper seems the best in terms of features and it's quite fast, and not in the way of other defraggers that only do a brief defragmentation but really fast. It has a butload of things it can do, plus it run's in the background to prevent fragmentation (which never slows your PC) but since using it I haven't gone above 1% fragmentation once.
That being said for the deepest fragmentation possible I'd get Defraggler (Piriform makes good software) The biggest issue I have with this is that it tends to take forever and I mean decades, It's definitely one of the slowest of the top Defraggers out there but not in a good way, it takes forever dealing with minor fragmentations say a 100 files or so, Which I really don't care if Diskeeper defragments or not because it's such a minimal amount and will have no effect at all. In otherwords it is the most deep scan, but to an extent that it's just a huge waste of time.
PerfectDisk an amazing programme I put this head-to-head with Diskeeper, the only thing that made me choose otherwise was the amount of features Diskeeper has like I previously mentioned, it always keeps my drive unfragmented and run's unnoticed, a downside to PerfectDisk is it's kinda bloated and not the easiest to use.
MyDefrag, this scan is incredible for performance I believe it uses a different method then other Defraggers, it stills defragments the files in the same process of course but it also has a method (which I forget) that speeds up how your hard drive reads, so definetly get this, hell if you want to run another defraggers and then this after just for the performance boost.
In summary:
Best Free Defragger = MyDefrag
Best Retail Defragger = Diskeeper.
