One thing I never considered was that a brand new computer can be defragmented:
"During setup, many files are created and deleted on the hard disk. Part of a normal installation process is the creation of temporary files, often very large ones, and then the removal of those files at the end of the installation. As a result, the disk can be very fragmented right after initial
system setup."
I like to use a faster program like auslogics disk defrag. It usually takes less than five minutes. It could be that diskeeper lite has gotten faster. I haven't used it in quite a while.
I just used their information to post for anybody who was interested. The download is read only, though it can probably be copypasted.
Nope, diskeeper lite takes my comp a long time, but my pc is slightly dated, still running a 2.8G P4, and I have a 160GB and 320GB which are both always within 10% capacity.
I personally use IOBit SmartDefrag. This can not only defrag your hard drive on the fly, it can "optimise" it, i.e. it moves files to a better location on the physical hard drive surface to allow for faster access. It does this based on how much you use the files.

I use that as well, and its by far one the best defrag programs around, and the best part is it free

I tried it last night. Nice program that defrags and optimizes the drive. Another nice feature is that the program can shut down your computer after it's done so you can do it in your sleep!
yeah, I'm in the same boat as Jaguar. Not enough free disc space.
I'm waiting for those 1TB drives to drop in price lol.
