Defragging Program Other Than Standard Vista

I used the defragger that came with Vista RC1. Not bad, but very slow (as
best as I can tell). Lacks visual way to see where process is.

I have used Diskkeeper for years. They have v10 beta which works with Vista
(at least RC1 which I have). I have downloaded that beta and just run it.
Smooth, quick. Easy install. And visual monitoring for those who like colors.

Interestingly, after install, it took the place of the standard Vista
Defrag. So, for those who like Live OneCare, Diskkeeper will be the defrag
default. Anyway, it seems to work very well, smooth, stable.

Worth the try...

it's not slow, but it runs at low I/O priority to avoid interfering with
other disk activities.
