Power Defragmenter VS Built-in Defragmenter
A while ago, I found a tool called Power Defragmenter and Contig. As the name suggested, the program claims to take defragmentation process to a whole new level. It is a simple program with simple user interface. You can choose to defrag a file, a folder, a disk or the PowerMode which is an enhanced Dual Pass defragmentation method for maximal defragmentation level. VistaRewired claimed that defragmentation process was gradually reduced to 6 minutes from 82 minutes on Vista machine. I then decided to test it on Mee’s laptop. At that time, I had just finished formatted the hard drive and Windows Tiny Edition was installed. However, the defragmentation took almost half an hour to one hour. In my opinion, a newly formatted hard drive with just installed Windows shouldn’t take that long even with the built-in defragmenter. Not satisfied, I installed Firefox 2 and copied a few portable programs into the root drive. I rebooted the system and ran Power Defragmenter again. However, it took almost the same duration as the first try. Even though it’s free, but I reckoned that it may not work as good as the built-in defragmenter. As with other users who claimed that it improves the system performance substantially, I would only say that I don’t agree at all. For those of you who would like to have a go. Visit the link below. – Power Defragmenter – I have heard comments on Vista saying that the system will crash if defragmentation is not ran periodically. However, I have my Vista for about 6 months without any defragmentation until two weeks ago. So far, I did not experience any problems except blue screen and memory dump. It was caused by the overclock of memory module which I set it from the motherboard. However, I changed it to the original settings, and everything became normal afterwards. Two weeks ago, I ran Vista defragmenter and it was completed below 60 minutes. I believe the time frame is acceptable and I will run it again since I have installed Service Pack 1 recently. |
