Vista defragger or 3rd party?

[pcgamer321]

Is the Vista defragger good enough to use, or should I buy a 3rd party one? Will it make a big difference?

Thanks

Why buy, Auslogics is good & free. You could compare them.

Vista's works fine, and you don't need to touch it. It's setup out of the box to run once per week without user intervention.

ah, thats good then. Thanks for the answer, I think I will just keep Vista's.

I use PerfectDisk because it consolidates free space. It can also perform an offline scan at boot-time, allowing it to defrag some files that can't be moved when Windows is running.

After some research on the subject, I decided to avoid Diskeeper. If you google for comparisons between Diskeeper and PerfectDisk, you'll find some good information about how both tools work, and how they compare to the default Windows defragger.
