MST Defrag v3 Public Beta

http://www.mstsoftware.com/en/Products/mst-Defrag/mst-Defrag-new

I've been running this for a few days and so far seems 100% stable, well worth testing, especially with the generous 60 day trial.

The main new feature is the command line tool which can be scheduled using the built in windows scheduler.

This is great, because it gives you the option of both the proactive and the scheduled defrag, which is a unique feature.

The proactive mode is great at defragging actual files, but I found it does not do space consolidate very well, by creating a regular schedules you can over come this weakness as the scheduled manual defrag does.

Hopefully they have worked to fix the issue of defragging difficult to defrag drives as reported by Donn Edwards: http://donnedwards.openaccess.co.za/2007/07/great-defrag-shootout-xix-mst-defrag-20.html , then this could well become a favourite of mine.
