*Smart Defrag* is a tool that allows you to schedule and perform
*defragmentation* operations on your hard disks. This can *improve
performance of drives*, allowing files to be accessed more quickly. The
application has four main sections: *State, Automatic Defrag, Boot Time
Defrag* and *Report*. The first is where you'll see details of whatever
scan is currently running. 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*. You can also pause scans or tell
Smart Defrag to shut down the computer when it has finished. Turning on
*Automatic Defrag* means Smart Defrag will reorganize your drives whenever
the system is idle. It's a neat solution, as doing a full defrag can be a
lengthy and resource-heavy process. There's also a *Boot Time Defrag*,
which allows you to defragment files that are dangerous to move while Windows
is in use. You can set this to run every boot-up, or just once every few
days. Smart Defrag's schedule tab allows defrags to be set up regularly, and
in *Options* there are some very useful settings. 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
is a well designed, effective and flexible application.*Download *Smart
