Patent-pending Resource Saver™ technology to speed defragmentation
Special technology to speed defrag runs and use fewer resources during defrag results in fast and effecient defragmentation of even the largest drives.
 |
|
|
Yes
| |
No |
Ability to defragment drives with minimal free space
Ability to defragment a drive with as little as 5%) free space, rather than the 15-20% typically required.
 |
|
|
Yes
| |
No |
Faster subsequent defrag runs
Defrags result in an optimized drive that will refragment more slowly and require fewer resources for future defrag passes.

Defragments Master File Table (MFT)
Defragments the Master File Table, the drive's index to all files, improving performance for NTFS drives
 |
|
|
Yes
| |
No |
Completely defragments all NTFS metadata
Deframents all NTFS metadata file on a drive, resulting in a more completely defragmented drive and faster performing NTFS drives.

|
|
Yes
| |
No |
User defined thresholds
Users and administrators can specify thresholds for fragmentation levels, below which defragmentation does not occur. Defragmentation doesn't occur if it is not necessary.
