Remember how fast your computer was out of the box? Your Windows loaded within seconds, files opened with a snap, and browsing the Web was a great experience. Unfortunately, computers slow down with time no matter how fast they are at first. This happens for a number of reasons, but the main cause of slow computer performance is disk fragmentation. Auslogics Disk Defrag can fix that.

File fragmentation occurs because Windows tries to save new files in the most space-efficient manner. It attempts to fill every available bit of space. To do that, it needs to split files, e.g. the files become fragmented. When you need to open a fragmented file, your hard drive’s read arm needs to perform a lot more operations than when you are opening a non-fragmented file. As a result, fragmented files take longer to open. But the worst bit is that this is true for every single piece of data stored on your computer – Windows system files, files needed by your software, your browser and so on. That’s why fragmentation reduces overall computer performance. Worse still, severe fragmentation can even lead to computer freeze-ups and crashes. The answer is to defragment your hard drive on a regular basis.

Windows has its own built-in disk defrag tool. However, it’s very slow and doesn’t do the job properly. It also lacks some important disk optimization features that guarantee flawless disk performance. Luckily, there are a lot of free alternatives. One of them is Auslogics Disk Defrag – a really well-known disk defrag and optimization utility. It’s a lot faster than the Windows defragmentation utility, can perform advanced disk optimization, and has a very intuitive interface.

Let’s have a look at some of its features:

Free Space Consolidation

Conventional defragmentation only defrags files, but does nothing to defragment free disk space. This means that free space remains fragmented. As bits of fragmented free space get filled with new files, the files become fragmented as well. As a result, fragmentation starts building up right after you defrag your files. Auslogics Disk Defrag can defragment the free space, which prevents new files from becoming fragmented.

Hard Drive Optimization

Windows system files are the most important and most used files on your PC. They are accessed no matter what you do and are essential for computer boot. Often Windows system files get placed on slower tracks of your hard drive and take longer to load. This slows down your whole operating system. Auslogics Disk Defrag defragments system files and moves them to the fast tracks of your disk. This keeps your system running fast and smooth.

Interactive Fragmentation Map

Auslogics Disk Defrag generates an interactive disk map that shows all files on your disk. The map is divided into blocks. You can see which files are in each block and whether they are fragmented or not by simply clicking on them. You can also personalize Disk Defrag by selecting the fragmentation map style and color theme that you like best.

Auslogics Disk Defrag is really easy to use. Novice users will have no problems figuring it out. As for more advanced users, they will appreciate Disk Defrag’s advanced options and command line tools.
