Publisher's description of Smart Defrag
Disk fragmentation is generally main cause of slow and unstable computer performance. Smart Defrag helps defragment your hard drive most efficiently. Smart Defrag not only defragments computer deeply but optimizes disk performance. With 'install it and forget it' feature, Smart Defrag works automatically and quietly in the background on your PC, keeping your hard disk running at its speediest. Smart Defrag is complete free for home, organization, and business.

Editor's review of Smart Defrag
It's hard to stand out in the crowded field of defraggers, but SmartDefrag is able to do so with an unexpected twist.

Along with quick analysis and scans, SmartDefrag boasts an automated defragger that continually defrags the files that you use the most, and does it without becoming a persistent drag on your system resources. When running in the background, the program only eats up 14MB of RAM, so it's possible to run it smoothly on older machines.

Other features we like include a scheduler you can set up to defrag whenever you want and some customization features if you want the program to start when Windows loads or right before logging off. You also can set it to shutdown your computer when it's done defragging your hard drives and partitions.

Overall, if you would like a handy defragger with options for scheduling and more, this is a great defragger for both novices and more experienced users.

Just installed it, and running it.

    Nice!

    I never bothered with defragging for about a year. Lol, no surprise there, thats when I got Vista.

    The only drivers that support my hardware only work with Vista. So I can't downgrade to XP. I tried and then realized the drivers were incompatible.

    So now I have a fresh system, I think I'll use this, sounds good. At least I can schedule it for 4am or whenever I decide to go to bed.

    I have it set to start with Windows. That's the whole idea.
    After an initial defrag, which took a while, I have maybe 1 defrag a day, which is totally unnoticeable, resource-wise, and it's very quick one.

    My last one was at 12:37PM today.
    Do you see any impact on your computer, like being slower, when defrag runs?

    No it doesn't slow down .just seems like it analyzes the complete HDD and takes some time doing that..Maybe that's normal
