I agree with that too, i never used to defrag often esp coz the job was
a pain and slow, Finally when the disk started getting fragged a lot,
got this n it runs beautifully in the background and the task is hardly
a bother. It doesnt hog system resources and has cool scheduling
features too. Performance is much better, if the system is kept clean
with a disk clean up (i'd recommend CCleaner for that) and defrag.
