It's important to note that Smart Defrag is not as essential for those running Windows 7 because the OS defrags continually on it's own.
You can set it to run scans on bootup or even have the app shut down your computer when it's done defragging selected hard drives or partitions. Smart Defrag offers a few extras, including a scheduler so you can set it up to only defrag during downtime on your computer. Even while performing a full defragmention and optimization run, the program barely uses as much as 25MB of RAM, and with just the auto-defrag running continually, it uses about half that amount. In addition to the solid defragmentation tools, you can have Smart Defrag automatically defrag the files you use the most without significantly slowing down your system. Depending on your hard drive and level of defragmentation, your mileage may vary. Our test machine has a rather full hard drive, so even using the fast optimization took close to 40 minutes. When you're ready to pull the trigger, you can choose from a straight defragmentation (fastest), or have Smart Defrag perform either a fast or "deep" optimization after defragmentation. The interface shows you different colored blocks representing fragmented files, frequently used files, and more, with a helpful key to show what each colored block represents. With this utility you can quickly analyze your hard drive to check the level of defragmentation before committing to a scan. Smart Defrag is a well designed, effective and flexible application.There are plenty of downloadable defrag utilities to choose from, but it's hard to beat the ease of use and helpful extras in IOBit's Smart Defrag. Smart Defrag can be set to defrag only when a computer is plugged in (not running on battery power), and also to pause if CPU usage reaches a predetermined percentage. Smart Defrag's schedule tab allows defrags to be set up regularly, and in Options there are some very useful settings. You can set this to run every boot-up, or just once every few days. There’s also a Boot Time Defrag, which allows you to defragment files that are dangerous to move while Windows is in use. It's a neat solution, as doing a full defrag can be a lengthy and resource-heavy process. Turning on Automatic Defrag means Smart Defrag will reorganize your drives whenever the system is idle. You can also pause scans or tell Smart Defrag to shut down the computer when it has finished. It’s also here that you can choose what kind of defrag you want to run – pick between Defrag Only, Defrag and Fast Optimize, or Defrag and Fully Optimize. The first is where you’ll see details of whatever scan is currently running. The application has four main sections: State, Automatic Defrag, Boot Time Defrag and Report.
