    diskeeper 2007 pro or perfectdisk 8?

    Hi,
    at the moment I have diskeeper 10 pro and i want to eiether upgrade to diskeeper pro 2007 which costs £27 or get perfect disk 8 which costs £20.

    I want to know what your opinions of both products and why you would choose one over the other.
    thanks in advance

    Moved to PerfectDisk myself. I can't really see much difference, but I get more control with PerfectDisk in that I can set the services to start only when needed, saving that tiny memory footprint.

    All in all, go with the cheaper in this case.

    Any real point in upgrading? Does it offer you anything you specifically want? If it's just shinier, it's really not worth it in my opinion.

    Its just the 2007 version of diskeeper has the invisitasking which defrags in realtime with no impact on performance except your pc runs faster!
    perfectdisk 8 is meant to be better at defragging and free space consolidation and the services thing you said is useful as well.
    am i likely to see a faster pc if i try perfectdisk 8?

    You're likely not to notice much at all to be honest... no matter which you use.

    It's not like there's any real point in realtime defragging on a desktop PC. And no matter what they say, it does impact performance. It's impossible for it not to. It does slow access times.

    Defragging is way over-emphasised. It's just not as important as people make out. Defragging a slow PC won't make it fast. You're looking at tiny speed increases, and even then only when accessing the hard drive.

    I personally prefer Perfect Disk. I tried them both out and it seems to work better for me.
