I had to pick Perfect Disk 2008 with free upgrade to Perfect Disk 10 for the same monetary reasons. Alhought I use Diskeeper for my vista desktop, i couldn’t afford the 70 dollar hit for my WHS machine.

Great review. This is something I will invest in for my WHS. For our laptop and desktops, I’m going to eliminate the need for disk optimization by switching to solid state drives in my next upgrade.

Very detailed review. I would have bought this but at the time its was near £70, so i got Raxco Perfect disk (which covers clients too). Much better deal IMHO.

Useful review — I may consider for both my WHS and one of my client machines. Does Diskeeper provide volume discounts, by any chance?

Thanks for the informative review.
I don’t use WHS, but have started using Diskeeper 2009 Professional on my XP SP3 computer, and it’s a great program. I think the best way to run Diskeeper is to put it in automatic mode rather than run it manually. Recently, I had a badly fragmented 160GB drive with about 6% free space and tens of thousands of files. Windows defragger refused to do anything despite multiple passes. This led me to install Diskeeper which defragged it easily in automatic mode!
