I'm using Win7 64-bit, and i'm wondering what the best disk defrag program is? For a while I was using Auslogics but i'm not sure if it's the best. Help me out! Thanks.

I use either Diskeeper (excellent performance and tweakability. Not free)

Auslogics Disk Defrag (good performance. Free)

Defragging is a waste of time.

You should run disk defrag every time you install an application. But I know nobody does this, so schedule to run disk defrag at least once a month. Especially if you are loading movies on torrent sites. This really slows up your disk. Your files become unordered and are spread all over the place. Disk defrag just makes sure their indexes of files are easily and fast enough accessed. I normally don't like installing applications and prefer to have all my applications portable. That's why I don't need to run defragging all the time.

I like that it automatically eliminates your solid state drive(s) from its defrag list, since they don't need to be defragmented...

I use Smart defrag

Probably the best free one.

Has the feature of doing a deep optimization defrag and runs in the background without you even knowing you installed it. Kind of like having a virus running without even knowing it's there lol. Doesn't even come up on msconfig but it's running. Could install it on someones computer wouldn't even know it's there lol.

Ya know same here... It does the same thing and i've tried Defraggler but the builtin one seems to work just as well.
