To Ryan
I am a tester for Diskeeper and I love it myself.
If you can not get more then half the areas defragged
that must mean that you have almost 75% or more of the drive
used up. If you can move some of around temporarily
then it will do a much better job. Diskeeper 6.0 is also much
better at handling drives filled then version 5.0 was.
