Can someone recommend a good non-Microsoft disk defrag program?
Thanks.

The link is about IOBit Security 360 however i think it's fair to say that their defragger does indeed look a little too much like Auslogics defrag for a reason :p

There's also one called defraggler but haven't tried that myself. I'm happy enough with Auslogics. I would normally use Diskeeper Pro but some of the guys here recommended Auslogics. Liked it a lot, but it only allowed one disk to be defragged at a time so i was still using Diskeeper on the main PC (with 6 drives) but the latest update of Auslogics allows multiple disks to be defragged.

I am assuming that all defraggers basically do the same job and the only selling points of one over another are extra features like scheduling and perhaps efficiency. Have you noticed any of the defraggers that actually do a better job than the others?

I personally don't research them too much, 'fraid these days i'm just concerned about whether a product defrags without corrupting anything and whether a product is reputable, i have loads of machines so for some things i'm happy to be a 'set and forget' kind of person :)

defraggler, it's free and quick as well as lightweight from the same people that made ccleaner
How would you compare it to the free Auslogics and Diskeeper products?

Well Creaky, guess I'm gonna have to do a little editing for my original answer. I never used Auslogics before, and I was going off a reccomendation on another thread here when I posted that. If it looks too much like Auslogics, then Auslogics I will switch to.
