Better than Auslogics or Defraggler is Diskeeper Pro, especially if you are using Vista because the newer versions of DK are VSS compatible. The only ‘drawback’ is that it’s not free, but IMO it’s worth the money because it has a wide range of options and defrag modes for each drive. If you are on XP and really insist on ‘free’, then Diskeeper Lite is probably the best choice….although it’s very old, atleast it’s safe and from a reputed manufacturer.

To inspect the size of each folder on a harddisk I always use SpaceMonger:

Simple, sleek, Very effective.
