    I'm testing it right now on my XP desktop and it's pretty slow. It's interface is nice as is all of Piriform products. Thoughts?

    I am using this on Vista 32bit Ultimate as we speak. It found 30,000 fragments and 42GB of fragmented files. Will update later.

    cant speak on this version, i used the previous version of defraggler a lot though. works decent on drives with a lot of free space. it works horrible with like 10% free space or so(older 80gb drive). can't even fully defrag mp3 files. However, i like jkdefrag more. for doing the whole drive it seems a lot faster, and runs good with other programs running.

    Well, I just tried this one..................... And........ I think I'll stick with JkDefrag :) It seems better as well as the final optimization process with JkDefrag is better I guess.. :) So for now, I think I will go with JKD.. though I'll be watching this in the future :)

    The free version worked about the same it seems as JKDefrag....if it's faster, I'll switch....it seems to be, but I'd already used JKD just previous.
