Best Defragging Software?

[EquivalentTrade]

I defrag my computer every couple of weeks using the Windows defragmenter, but am just wondering, is there anything perhaps better for defragging? I saw in the freeware thread a program called DIRMS Defragmenter, and it looks promising, but I'm wondering if there's anything else out there you supah proz (lawl) use. Thanks

I've been using Defraggler by Piriform. (The same people who make CCleaner)

Anyway, it's free, fast, has many options and is very light. The download is less than half a MB.

PD, long time DK supporter. But had many issues under Vista64 w/ DK (two times filesystem corruption, had to reinstall.)
Besides, now they removed boottime defrag "due to incompatibility with Vista SP1"....and also in the latest i have never seen ifaast running on my machine. So right now PD FTW. PD also does a way better meta file defragmentation.

Diskeeper on my windows xp and Defraggler on my vista notebook but it is not very fast as diskeeper but it does a good job anyway

Currently I use Diskeeper 9 Pro
Works well on XP .. they have a newer
version out that I think can run on Vista
and also does Raid Arrays. Not sure if V9
works on Vista or Raid

I use Ultradefrag, works great and fast

yet another defrag thread? more like a rehash of info that you can *easily* find using google.

just google 2 words
http://www.google.com/search?&q=best%20defrag
google has so much on people asking what is the best defrag tool.

and try other variations if you want different results.
