Can anyone please recommend their preference for defragmentation
software and why they prefer it over the others.

Alot of people seem to recommend Diskeeper. I've had a look at it and
it seems to be strong for automatic defragmenting (and not for manual
defrag) which is not something I like. I just prefer have it running
once a week overnight. Perhaps Perfectdisk would be a better option
for me?

Vista's defrag is all you'll ever need. I would suggest setting it to
run nightly instead of once a week as it is scheduled by default.
If you would prefer to buy one, then pop for the money to buy
Diskeeper 2008. I doubt that there is a better one available.

Vista's defrag. Why take a chance with your NTFS using a vendor to maybe
save a few minutes?

I have been using Diskeeper for quite awhile - very happy with it - worth
the money IMO.

Diskeeper in my experience is overpriced and garbage. Microsoft's
defrag is a joke and very slow. UltraDefrag is quite, fast and free. I
run it daily and don't even know it's running. doesn't slow down the
system at all.
I'll whisper now, so the fanboy morons don't hear. It's Open Source.
You know, what the Microsoft faithful hate with a passion. <snicker>

Figures - You have no clue how decent software works. You must stop that
drinking at apply at Taco-Bell for that counter job.
