The hard disk drive on a Windows PC is by far the slowest component on your PC. Even high amounts of memory (RAM) and a fast processor cannot overcome the limitations of a slow disk drive… and nothing slows a hard drive down like excessive fragmentation! Although DiskMagik is a powerful tool suitable for advanced users, it is also perfect for the novice as well. A very user friendly multi step configuration wizard makes the initial setup a snap. Use DiskMagik with full confidence to enhance your computer’s performance and keep your system in peak operating condition.

Reviews for DiskMagik
Great.
Thorough.
Good choice; large family of software–visit their websie.
As files are being constantly read, written, deleted, and resized on a disk drive, fragmentation occurs. It is the process by which files are broken down into small fragments and these are spread out over several locations on the disk. Fragmentation causes slow read and write speeds, reduce PC performance, long boot-times, random crashes and freeze-ups, and in extreme cases even a complete inability to boot up at all. That’s why we need to perform defragmentation on the disk drives, it is the process by which access speed is increased by rearranging files stored on a disk to occupy contiguous storage locations. A Disk Defragmenter utility is part of Windows by default, and there are many third party applications available too.
