Diskeeper 2008 Professional Edition Diskeeper 2008 Professional edition puts your system in the driver’s seat, allowing you to enjoy unprecedented performance and reliability while you work. Fragmented hard drives drain critical system resources and compromise almost every aspect of daily computer use, leading to longer load times, persistent lags and costly crashes. Diskeeper 2008 elevates system performance, debugging fragmentation-based problems as they occur, without ever compromising vital system resources, even during times of heaviest demand. The Breakthrough Of InvisiTasking InvisiTasking's true transparent, background processing technology allows Diskeeper 2008 to defragment your computer in real-time, completely eliminating the need for cumbersome maintenance operations. Free up gridlocked resources and let your computer hum along at peak performance while you work. Diskeeper 2008 Professional enhances the reliability and performance of your computer—automatically! Increase Computer Speed Your computers will run faster with Diskeeper 2008 installed—period. You’ll enjoy using every aspect of your system—from downloading to accessing files to surfing the web with greater ease and efficiency. Leave hang-times, freeze-ups and other fragmentation-based crashes in the dust. Diskeeper 2008: A Disk Performance Revolution Diskeeper 2008 Professional is unlike any other product on the market today. Now, more than ever, it is important to have a system that is reliable and performs at the peak of its ability. Remember how your PC or laptop ran when it was new? Diskeeper 2008 has been designed to keep your system faster than new. Simply install Diskeeper 2008 and your computer will run faster and more reliably than it ever has before. The Power Of Fragshield Fragshield is a feature which dynamically prevents fragmentation of critical system files, maintaining system stability and reliability. It helps you configure your MFTs (Master File Tables - the place where information about every file and directory on an NTFS hard drive is stored) and paging files (a hidden file on your computer's hard disk that Windows XP & Vista uses as if it were RAM) as recommended by Microsoft. Following these guidelines will help you keep these critical system files working their best. Your system will not slow down from fragmented MFT's or paging files. FragShield is comprised of two components: the MFT configuration tool and the paging file configuration tool. These tools allow you to set up your MFT's and paging files so that fragmentation will be very unlikely to occur in the future. Features BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY! INVISITASKING™ —InvisiTasking is the foundation for Diskeeper to eliminate fragmentation in real time without affecting system resources or intruding on system demands. EXCLUSIVE! REAL-TIME DEFRAGMENTATION automatically handles fragmentation as it occurs, providing maximum system performance at all times! NEW! COMPLETE FILE AND FREE SPACE DEFRAGMENTATION defragmentation in the most extreme of conditions— even if your systems have only a one or two percent of free space left available or a file in millions of fragments, Diskeeper 2008 can restore lost performance and save the applications reliant on those files from major reliability failures. NEW! DEFRAGMENTATION INTELLIGENCE ENHANCEMENTS —Diskeeper’s logic controller, which detects various volume and system conditions and chooses the most effective algorithm, has been re-designed to deliver performance benefits faster and more efficiently. NEW! FRAG SHIELD™ 2.0 —boosts reliability and availability by automatically preventing crash-inducing fragmentation of critical system files. NEW! VOLUME SHADOW COPY SERVICE (VSS) COMPATIBILITY MODE —only Diskeeper 2008’s new VSS-compatible mode affords you the ability to leverage the data protection of VSS and the performance and reliability of automatic defragmentation. Native 64 bit operating systems support. BOOT-TIME MODE safely performs Microsoft®-recommended defragmentation of critical system files.<p>Hardware Support: Diskeeper runs on the Intel® x86 platforms (including compatible CPUs from other manufacturers). Functional Limits: Maximum supported volume size: 768GB Note - high-powered desktop systems with volume sizes up to 2TB will need Primary Partitions Extended Partitions Logical Drives Volume Sets RAID Arrays (hardware and software) Mirrored Disks Mounted Volumes (letter-less drives) Resource Requirements The disk space requirements for Diskeeper depend on several factors. On Windows Vista, XP, and Windows 2000 systems, Diskeeper will need about 11 MB. Allow about 10 MB of extra free space for temporary files during the installation. If Internet Explorer is not present on your computer, some other needed files (hhupd.exe, 50comupd.exe, and wintdist.exe) may be added. Further, your system may require a new or updated version of the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), which is less than 6 MB. Additional Software Requirements Diskeeper relies on the Microsoft Management Console (MMC). The MMC provides a single point of control for system utilities such as Diskeeper. The MMC is used as a central location for a variety of Microsoft and third party administrative tools. The MMC is included in Microsoft Windows 2000 and newer Windows operating systems.
