I can recommend PerfectDisk 8 (commercial) and/or JkDefrag (freeware). I have reviewed 15 commercial and 16 freeware utilities in "The Great Defrag Shootout" and these two are my "<a href="http://donnedwards.openaccess.co.za/2007/09/great-defrag-shootout-winners.html" rel="nofollow">winners</a>". You can also find detailed reviews and download links at this site. PerfectDisk 8 has the ability to defrag files that are in use once Windows starts up (even in safe mode) and it has a simple but highly effective method of placing all the files to speed up both file access times and file write times, by defragging the free space on your hard drive. JkDefrag takes a different approach, and has a screen saver option that works really well, especially when your PC is not being used. It's extremely effective and works much better than the built-in Windows program. Your article relies on the built-in Windows Defragmenter, which is not particularly thorough or helpful.

Because it runs in the background constantly, it attacks fragmentation as soon as possible, automatically, and without compromising system resources. So you don't have to manually run an anaylsis and then defrag the drives via the old-fashioned manual or scheduled process, both of which can be a bit of a bother and make the PC unavailable during that time (can be a few hours depending on the number, size and fragmentation of the disks). Automatic defragmentation is the easiest and most effective solution for keeping the drives optimized! An automatic defragmenter makes life easier!
