0 thejohnnyq Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 PerfectDisk beats all others. We had Diskkeeper, but is was unable to defrag several servers, Perfectdisk did the job, and is now the standard here.

0 Slimy Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 do a search buddy. most people haven't tried perfecdisk and will tell you diskeeper is the best. perfectdisk actually improves performance and is much better than diskeeper. o&o and diskeeper aren't bad defragmenters, but imo perfectdisk is just better.

0 Fog Dogg Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Perfect Disk is probally better, but I use diskkeeper because it suits me better (screensaver defrag)... Plus it's a lot faster.

0 jp10558 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Personally, I used diskeeper for about a year and a half. I upgraded, ran it whatever. Used it normally. I never actually saw any difference over not defragmenting, or over the windows defragmenter. About a week ago, I got perfect disk after seeing a recommendation on Neowin. All I can say is WOW. It actually made a noticable difference. My boot time sped up by ~ 3 minutes. (Long story, used to take about 5 minutes to boot as I run lots of stuff in the background that has to load. This took about 3 minutes of load to about 30 seconds.) Anyway, you might also want to see the Software review threads in the Reviews by members forum.

0 Boxster17 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I used to use Diskeeper, until I came across PerfectDisk. Perfect Disk I think is a much better product and it makes more of a difference for your computer.

0 Slouch Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Same story as others - used Diskeeper for a long time, then tried PerfectDisk. PerfectDisk gave me all of the features I liked in Diskeeper AND it sped up my system. If you've been using anything other than PerfectDisk, try PerfectDisk for a couple of weeks and you'll see what everyone is saying. You won't be disappointed.

0 bangbang023 Veteran Posted July 8, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 8, 2005 PerfectDisk, as far as I know, doesn't offer a service to automatically check and defrag your drives if need be. I prefer that over a possible performance boost.

0 GodsHand Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 I'm 99.9% sure all third-party defraggers use the Windows defragger. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/341423-best-defragmentation-software/#findComment-586180757 Share on other sites More sharing options...

O&O I tried Perfect Disk (using their trial..btw they have sent me a lot of e-mails about how they are better than diskeeper, reports benchmarks and stuff... obviously, that's their biggest enemy) it takes a long time to defrag despite of my HD being maintained by Diskeeper before I tried it.. the apps were slower and it was not an improvement over diskeeper. The only problem with diskeeper is that when it analyze the HD for fragmentations, the results ALWAYS VARY!! :angry: Especially after a manual defrag. (no, I wasn't running any background tasks) I use o&o now and it takes a long time to defrag... (and it's kinda confusing to decided how to defrag the drive.. (by last used, created..etc)) but I like it, it has the most in depth analysis report of the fragmentation status of the drive, though the reports varies at times(not as much as deskeeper!), but it's pretty close.
