Just the usual reminder for those unfamiliar with Ashampoo’s version # scheme. Products with just 1 or 2 digits are full versions, products with year date are renamed previous versions or are feature limited. For example: WinOptimizer 12 is the same base version as WinOptimizer 2017 but 2017 is feature limited.
In this offer HDD Control 2017 is the same as HDD Control 2 & is also the same feature you get included with WinOptimizer 11 & 12.
That said, HDD Control is a great product for monitoring your hard drives & includes a few extra tools such as junk cleanup, disk testing tools, etc. and is well worth including in your toolkit if you don’t already have a tool to check drive health.
