    how does this stack up to defraggler from Piriform (who made the excellent CCleaner) bee using both these programs for a long time now and never really seen anything better for free anyway.

    I have tried so many defrag programs in both business and home environments and to this day Auslogics Disk Defrag Free works the best for me. Fast and thorough. You can even go into algorithms and have it move system files to the beginning of your drive for faster access. With Defraggler I noted that a defrag, not quick defrag, took forever and if I ran it a second time in a row it took just as long, and worked on the same files it had just moved. IMO a defragmenter shouldn't have to keep moving around files that it has just worked on. UltraDefrag is good too but it's GUI interface leaves a lot to be desired.

    Also note that UltraDefrag has not been tested on any O/S newer than Windows 7 per their release notes and installation routine.

    I will test this one, but have to say I like JKDefrag out of all I tested so far.

    I've always used PerfectDisk. I am currently using PerfectDisk 2012 and haven't had any issues as such.

    I have tried PerfectDisk as well with good results. I just have a hard time using a defrag that insists on running background processes; O&O and Diskeeper are also known for such.

    JKDefrag is fairly outdated, and if memory serves me right has been replaced with MyDefrag; however, I have used both with mixed results.

    Well, Defragller is really good and fast for short-term emergency defrag, but it's nothing special in a long run, as it has no smart placement methods that would optimize file-to-file access times or minimize further fragmentation.

    You can try Puran Defrag too - it's free, has boot-time defrag and all these fancy smart placement methods; but it's not as fast as Defraggler. If you want to try a paid solution, I think that PerfectDisk is the best of them.
