    when running jkdefrag in default (like with -a 3 option when running from the command line), I guess yes, it does the whole thing... for me I have seen both the drive' being defragmented....

    Also you could also run it separately specifying C: or D: or whatever from the command line.... no harm.

    When I've used JK Defrag I think it just goes through every drive in your system from the first to the last. Partitions should be included in that as well.

    It should. I have multiple drives and it does all of them, so I don't see why it wouldn't do all partitions.
