I run the bat like this
Defrag C: /V in a bat file with a shortcut that points to it and
I schedule the shortcut to run.
I had to do this as scheduler wouldn't let me run a bat file
Ether way it works and it's much faster than the normal windows
GUI

Since you mentioned defragging...
I just wanted to pass along a tip regarding defragging disks
(at least in Windows). I schedule all the Remedy servers and my
desktop computer to defrag each night. It's free, keeps the drives
defragged, and doesn't interfere with normal operations.
I have a batch file that contains commands such as these:
defrag c: > c:\defragrpt.txt
defrag e: >> c:\defragrpt.txt
In Windows Scheduled Tasks I added a job that runs every night
(outside of backup times) and creates a small report of before and after
fragmentation percentages.

For the use you intend, 250 GB would be more or less good enough
considering you might be storing application install files, possibly
taking DB backups on your local disk while installing and later when you
make certain AR System or its applications configuration changes. I
would budget about 50 GB for all those backups and about the same for
all the files that you would be downloading to install various products
plus patches..
Allocate at least 4 GB for your ARS Database and about the same
size of a tempdb / temp space..
Defrag your drive after all your installs for a good measure..
About your processor I don't really have that much of hardware
expertise but 2 processors of 3 GHz sounds pretty good.

That was about what I thought. My first idea was for 2
GB RAM, but it sounds like 4GB would probably be better overall. For
disk space, would 250GB be about right? What about the processor(s) - a
couple of 3.0 GHz?
Thanks,
John

Even 2 GB RAM for ITSM 7 seems a little less
than what it should be.. Especially if you are using it for development
and testing.. if it were being used to demo the application by sales 2
GB would have been just about right..

If you're doing all that stuff on one
machine, I would recommend a laptop with AT LEAST 2GB of RAM, if not
more. ARS Server + RDBMS consume prodigious amounts of memory.

Hello list,
I've been asked for hardware specs for a
standalone laptop to use as a sandbox for Remedy future development. I
went through some old list emails but couldn't find quite what I needed.
It would be used for testing out version 7 and would have ARS, ITSM,
CMDB, mid-tier, and database all on the one machine. Any assistance is
appreciated.
Thanks!
