We are not using it right now, but I'm trying to get budget dollars for it next year. Another option is a program called AUTODEFRAG by Morphasys http://www.morphasys.com/autodefrag/ this allows you to schedule defrag using the Windows scheduler. It's a pretty nifty program for free :-) I've been using it on some of the file servers we have here with pretty good results. Hope this helps. I'm also looking forward to answers everyone else may have before I turn in my budget "wish-list" Thanks, Raymond -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hunter, Laura E. Sent: Wednesday, June 30, 2004 4:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] OT - Straw poll: Server disk defrag Evening all, Just looking for some recommendations from my favourite smart people: what (if anything) do you all use for disk defragmenting in an enterprise scenario? I'm tyring to find something nicely schedule-able and manage-able from a single console, and the built-in 200/3 jobbie (while a welcome addition) isn't quite cutting the mustard. Thanks! Laura E.
