    I've used O&O free version in the past. Don't know if it's still around.

    The defrag utility in XP does leave big chunks of data separated over the disc I find, - O&O *moves* everything so that it's one contiguous block of data. I haven't used it for a while either so not sure whether you can get hold of it for free anymore...

    Disk keep is not too bad, still won't move the mft to the front of the drive for me.

    Migth give O&O a go to see how it goes.
