Command Line
For those who like to run things from the command line or script with batch files, PerfectDisk has a complete command line interface. Through it, you can start or stop a defragmentation pass. This can be on any local partition or a remote machine on your network that has PerfectDisk installed. You can obtain the status of any active operation on local or remote computers. And you can schedule an off-line defrag to occur on the next re-boot.
Perfect PerfectDisk?
Raxco claims, “PerfectDisk 2000 is the only defragmenter that does a COMPLETE defrag - All data files and all system files.” So I was surprised that it left fragmented files, even after multiple passes. For example, even after three passes, on my 35GB partition, with over 11GB free space, it left a 272MB mpeg video file in 19 fragments. But it did completely defrag an 11MB Outlook Express mail file that was originally in 1,172 fragments.
After a week or so of nightly runs, almost all files eventually ended up being defragged. But there are 2 files that seem to defy any attempt at defragmentation: a 617MB data file for Microsoft MapPoint, which remains in 14 fragments; and a 161MB file from Microsoft Digital Image Pro, which remains in 2 fragments. But, out of some 150,000 files, hey, that’s not too shabby!
Make a Good Thing Better
I do have a few wish list items I passed on to Raxco. The documentation is OK, but not in the format I like. There is a PDF Getting Started guide which is excellent, but is, in fact, aptly named. Then there are all the details in the help files. I hate hunting though help files. I much prefer a complete manual in addition to help files. PDF format is fine. Many times, I have found obscure things by browsing through a manual that I never would have found in the online help.
I would like to see threshold control on scheduled jobs. I might have a nightly job that will run only if the fragmentation level reaches 3%, and a weekend job that will run regardless of fragmentation level.
Currently, there is no way to specify in a scheduled job if the defrag pass should be defragment only or smart placement. It runs in the same mode as the last time the program ran. If this could be specified, I might set the nightly job to defragment only and a weekend job to smart placement. I have been told this will be in the next release.
Notwithstanding the above, I found PerfectDisk to be incredibly fast and (almost completely) thorough. It is simple to work with and offers flexibility in its operation. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking for a good defragger.
PerfectDisk runs on any version of Windows from Windows 95 OSR2 and later. Windows NT requires SP3 or higher. Memory requirements are 16MB for the 9x kernel and 64MB for Windows NT/2K/XP. Disk sizes up to a terabyte are supported.
Prices: Workstation versions of Windows - US$44. Server versions of Windows – US$219. A Personal Edition is available that runs only on workstation versions of Windows. It doesn’t include the boot-time optimization features, the command line interface or network support. It costs US$35. My advice; spend the extra US$9 and get the ability to do boot-time optimization.
