Disk Defrag Software

[csduke]

Is anyone using non-Microsoft disk defragmenting software?

Hi I\'ve used Diskeeper, it\'s quite good as it also lets you defrag the swapfile (virtual memory).

The best ever made is PerfectDisk 2000. It does the job better than any others.
But personaly, I run O&O Defrag (the FREEware version - I don\'t want to spend money for something windows offers me already) that works good too.
