50% Cheaper Defragmentation

Computer savvy users are perfectly aware of the importance of regular defragmenting files on the disk. The benefit of the procedure have a direct effect on overall system performance, reducing read/write times, thus leading to snappier opening of applications as well as faster copying data on the hard disk.

One of the downsides users would complain in the past would be the increased resource usage for the duration of the optimization. Lately, this is no longer the case as the standard in most professional defraggers has been raised and the apps come now with the possibility to perform during computer idle times, sparing the CPU and RAM usage when you work on the computer.

Regularly priced at $15, and designed for home users, Ashampoo released the latest version of Magical Defrag at Softpedia, which offers an exclusive 50% discount. Exclusive download from Softpedia is available until December 20, but the offer will persist beyond this date.

The main advantage of Ashampoo’s defragger, besides the enhanced algorithm that compares with that of professional software of the same kind, is that it has been developed to run in the background, and work during computer idle times. Once activity is resumed on the computer, the defragmentation process will pause, giving you the full power of the computer resources.

Being shaped up with the average home user in mind, the product can start doing its job unattended out of the box, as the beforehand set up default task covers all fix volumes and is configured to run behind the curtain, when no computer activity is recorded. On the other hand, more experienced users are given the possibility to tweak the triggers of the task, such as restricting defragmentation when CPU, I/O or page file activity is above a certain threshold, or when the laptop (if the case) runs in battery mode, or when printing is undertaken.

Ashampoo Magical Defrag is an easy solution for file fragmentation problems, at a great price on Softpedia. The engine doing all the hard work did an impressive job during our tests managing to maintain file fragmentation well under 1% on all partitions, with no other effort then walking away from the computer from time to time and heading to more pressing chores.

Even if Sunday, December 20 is the last day you can download the application exclusively from Softpedia, the discount will continue in the following days, allowing you to grab it for $7.50 from our website.
