Disk Defragmenter - The Limitations Of Windows Disk Defragmenter

Home | Computers-and-Technology | Software

The Disk Defragmenter is a good defragment tool for Windows 2000, 2003 and XP. It is an accessory of Windows system used for maintaining disk performance by defragmenting volumes that use the FAT, the FAT32, or the NTFS file system.

Fragmentation is inevitable. It occurs when you are using your computer to browse websites, download files, run a program and so on. Disk Defragmenter is for the purpose of reducing the amount of fragmentation in the hard disk. Using it could effectively eliminate the negative impacts of fragments on disk performance.

But it has some limitations.
1. It can defragment only one volume at a time. And when you are defragmenting one volume, it cannot even analyze others. That is time wasting.
2. In Windows 2000, it cannot defragment Word, Excel and other files which are encrypted. This limitation was removed in Windows XP and later systems.
3. It requires free large amount of disk space to performance quickly. It take much more time to defragment the volume which has little disk space than that has more large space.
4. It is a defragmentation tool which only reduces the fragmentation. It does not provide with hard drive performance optimization. That is a obvious shortcoming.

Disk Defragmenter is a good utility of windows system. But comparing to other defragment tools, it is slow, and lack of features and effectiveness. Some defragment tools can analyze and defragment all volumes in the disk at a time. What is more important is that they can optimize the disk performance. On the contrary, Disk Defragmenter is lack of effectiveness in improving computer performance.
