No matter how powerful your PC is, fragmentation will slow it down. Its just a matter of time. In fact, the harder your system works, the faster it bu ilds fragmentation. Manual, single-pass defragmenters simply cant keep up--in o rder to maintain performance, youd likely spend more time defragmenting than yo u did using the computer! Why bother with a time-consuming manual process, when Diskeeper 9 Professional Edition simply makes the problems of fragmentation go away forever?
Diskeeper 9 Professional Edition allows custom configuration tailored to the wa y you use your system. Fine-tune Diskeeper to your likings or select the defaul t options then "Set It and Forget It", and youll never need to worry about frag mentation again!
Features:
- High-speed defrag engine: At the heart of Diskeeper is a patented high-spee d multi-pass engine that runs 300- to 500-percent faster than the built-in defr agmenter. By running in the background, Diskeeper is completely unobtrusive--in fact its so fast and so efficient that you may not even notice when the defrag mentation engine is active.
- "Set it and forget it" operation: Diskeeper keeps your PC running at its sp eed and reliability potential on its own, even while you are using your compute r. Install and schedule Diskeeper 9, and fragmentation is taken care of automat ically in the background.
- Enhanced scheduling flexibility: Diskeeper 9 provides a range of scheduling options including custom time and day scheduling, screen-saver mode, and exclu sive SmartScheduling mode, which dynamically schedules defragmentation accordin g to your systems usage patterns.
- FragShield: Fragmentation of the MFT (Master File Table, your disks virtual table of contents) and paging file (disk-based extension of memory) causes cra shes, freezes, and lock-ups. FragShield prevents these critical system areas fr om becoming fragmented, eliminating a major cause of crashes, freezes, and lock -ups.
- Boot-time fragmentation: Certain system files (including the MFT in Windows 2000 and NT and the paging file in XP, 2000, and NT) cannot be safely defragme nted while the computer is up and running. Use the Diskeeper 9 boot-time mode t o safely defragment these files and restore your computers reliability
- I/O Smart: New in Diskeeper 9 is I/O Smart technology, which pauses backgro und defragmentation when other programs or processes need access to the drive. I/O Smart ensures that defragmentation with Diskeeper 9 never slows your system down--in fact, its virtually undetectable.
- File performance mode: Fragmentation of a few large files can cause the big gest slowdowns. New File Performance defragmentation mode targets these perform ance bottlenecks and rapidly defragments them for a quick performance boost.
- Fully configurable defragmentation modes: Diskeeper 9 allows you to set the priority level (how much CPU time Diskeeper gets as opposed to other running p rograms) as well as the defragmentation method (max disk performance, quick def ragmentation, file-performance defragmentation, or free-space consolidation). D iskeeper allows up to two schedules per volume, each with its own priority leve l and defragmentation method.
- Enhanced system tray icon: The Diskeeper system tray icon appears any time the defragmentation engine is active, and adjusts its functionality according t o user permissions. Administrators can open the Diskeeper user interface and co mpletely control the current defragmentation job, while non-administrators can "bump" a defragmentation job to a later time.
- Expanded performance displays: The Diskeeper user interface includes perfor mance and reliability analysis graphs that illustrate exactly how much speed an d reliability are being lost to fragmentation on an individual machine. New Per formance Map provides an "at-a-glance" indication of fragmentation conditions o n each individual volume.
- Power saving mode for laptops: For mobile users, Diskeeper 9 includes a pow er saving mode that suspends background defragmentation while the system is run ning on battery power.
Advanced “Set It and Forget It” functionality No matter how powerful your PC is, fragmentation will slow it down. It’s just a matter of time. In fact, the harder your system works, the faster it builds fragmentation.
