Guest LB Posted August 25, 2003 Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 Diskeeper v8.0 beta is now available from... Diskeeper 8.0it is a time restricted 30 day trial, but if 7.0 is anything to go by it should be good****UPDATE****I have now downloaded the program, having installed and run it, there is a massive improvement, the visual interface actually explains what is going on and performance gains in percentage terms. So far, a worthwhile download and probably worth the purchase price too.**************** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nellie2 Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 So it just gives you a bit more info then???....... I think I will stick to diskeeper lite. I know I need to defrag now and then.... I don't really need stats about my drives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 What do you do on your computer that makes your files heavily fragmented?Can you not wait a thousandth of a millisecond more that in takes to access "that" file.I prefer XP's Defragger!

Guest LB Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 defragging is just good housekeeping, and its really not a thousandth of a millisecond, for example outlook would take up to 10 seconds to load before defragging and only 2 after.XP's defragger is based on and written by the same people that make Diskeeper, however diskeeper is far quicker and more powerful, can you set and forget on XP's defragger? I think not..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nellie2 Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 Plus its so quick.......Zooooooom!! Done!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 Well ok ok ok maybe not a 1000th...But XP is fine for me.I defrag when i want :wub:But you can always add it to scheduled tasks...So you could set and forget, which then closes once completed.
