Softpedia Editor's Review for Ashampoo Magical Defrag
|
Unleash your computer's hidden performance
Written by Elena Opris on April 15th, 2013
Ashampoo Magical Defrag is a tool that can help you keep your hard drive in good shape.
Once you initiate the application, the defragmenation starts automatically and runs in the background. The interface is clean and intuitive and you can view the current action, total defragmented files and moved clusters, as well as symbols for the graphical representation.
Thus, you can read statistics and a drive analysis, as well as configure user settings (e.g. disable notification updates, use Magical Defrag screensaver) and the job administration.
You can create a new job by selecting the specific drives for the defrag task, enable the options to defrag removable drives and SSD drives, and define which files you want to defrag (smaller, larger, newer).
In the following steps, you can configure advanced settings (e.g. never stop defragmentation, do not run while in battery mode or while printing) and select the time interval to repeat the job (e.g. daily, once, when the screensaver is active, start manually).
The program uses a moderate amount of system resources and contains a comprehensive help file. A defrag task is completed in a reasonable amount of time (of course, this can take a while, depending on the size of your hard drive and defrag settings you have configured), but we haven't come across any kind of problems during our tests.
Since Ashampoo Magical Defrag is extremely simple to use even by beginners and we strongly recommend this software if you want a clean and effective solution when it comes to defragmenting your computer.
