I found a good freeware disk defragger

Recommended Posts

I stumbled upon a nice freeware disk defragger if anyone is interested. It's called JKDefrag. I'm using the 64bit version with my copy of Vista Ultimate x64 and it works great.I ran it from a command line and used the following command, JkDefrag.exe -a 7 c:This lets it defrag c: drive and uses optimizing strategy 7.7 = Optimize by sorting all files by name (folder + filename).Afterwards I ran it again using the windows version. Seems to work better than the default ms defragger.http://www.kessels.com/JkDefrag/

Yes, its an excellent utility, I'm running it on my vista64 system.A new version 4 is on the way, which will have even better optimisation of windows files.John

Version 4 huh? That's nice to hear.The number and size of files that need to be defragged after installing something like mesh or textures is crazy. FSX sure is a spacehog.

Would anyone recommend this utility over any mainline defrag carrier such as disk keeper? I've used jkdefrag in the past and really liked its light weight impact on my system...
