Personally, I don't trust defragmenters anymore. They've caused me problems enough times that I absolutely will not try them without a full disk backup. And if I'm going to go to the trouble of making a complete backup, I might as well just reinitialize + restore, which effectively defragments the files and free space. It's safe, reliable, and heck, even faster than using defraggers (assuming you're making a backup anyway, which you definitely should). |
When you say "reinitialize and restore", you are talking about doing a backup, wiping the boot disk, and then restoring to that boot disk from the backup that you made, correct?
