How to Speed Up the Defragmentation

I´am always leaving my computer for the time that it is defragmenting the hard drives, it takes way to long to sit there and wait for the process to finish. The defragmentation seems to take forever to finish on my three hard drives and I was looking for a way to speed things up a bit and reduce the time that I could not work with my computer.

SpeeDefrag is the answer to my calls and probably to yours as well. Instead of defragmenting the hard drives with Microsoft Windows running on the background it restarts the computer and defragments the hard drives before Windows starts. This means it is able to utilize more resources for the task and that there are less background processes from windows running who might interfere with the defragmentation.

You may opt that SpeeDefrag will shutdown or restart your computer once the defragmentation process has finished. SpeeDefrag automatically detects the hard drives, better partitions, that are connected at the moment and gives you the option to select each one to be defragmented.

    It’s regrettably lacking a progress bar, but does seem to work quite well.
