This compact defragmenter can improve the performance of the PC by de-fragmenting and rearranging the files on the computer hard disk. Defragmentation is carried out using a powerful engine that can defragment large multi-terabyte volumes, including optimization of the hard drive files to gain higher performance. This application employs optimization algorithms that enable users to defragment free space, move system files to the fastest part of the disk, and clear the MFT Reserved Zone from the regular files.
