i'm defragging an old laptop drive and found it odd that about half the disk says unmovable file. Some defragger let you click on a block and tells you what file is on that block, is there another tool I can use for that ?

I've been using Piriform's freeware Defraggler for several years. I like that it's very lightweight, has a good GUI, does a very fast analysis that lists all the defragmented files by name and location, and in particular the ability to defragment both an individual file such as a large (3-4 GB) downloaded ISO file, or an entire disk very quickly.

Edit: You probably need to run chkdsk on that volume in order to solve the "unmovable file" problem.
