Auslogics Releases Disk Defrag Pro 4.1 with Expanded SSD Options

Auslogics Software has just released Disk Defrag Pro 4.1 – an updated version of its professional defragmenter with expanded support for solid state drives.

Sydney (I-Newswire) October 22, 2012 - Auslogics Software Pty. Ltd., a leading publisher of computer maintenance and optimization software has announced the release of version 4.1 of its professional defragmentation software, Disk Defrag Pro.

Auslogics Disk Defrag Professional is a program that offers advanced disk defragmentation and optimization algorithms both to home and business users. Included is the boot-time (offline) defragmentation feature that allows processing of locked system files, as well as 4 data placement optimization algorithms, special modes for SSD’s and VSS-enabled drives, an advanced scheduler and extensive graphical charts and reports.

This major update ensures the program will accommodate all points of view toward SSD defragmentation and optimization. For those who are opposed to using defragmenters on solid state drives, the installer now includes options to disable showing SSD drives in the list of disks before the program is used for the first time, so the software never processes SSD’s. The added SSD page in program settings, that now combines all previously existing and new SSD-related options, provides expanded configurability for processing SSD drives. A new SSD Optimization profile that has been added in version 4.1 offers special optimization algorithms for dealing with this drive type.

Besides the new SSD options, Disk Defrag Pro 4.1 includes some updates that were implemented as a result of user feedback and requests. The addition of informational notes in the main program window is intended to help new users better understand the program’s functionality. The way a user works with defragmentation profiles has been significantly improved, including the addition of a convenient editor for specifying files and folders, which eliminates the need to enter file name and path manually. The section related to junk removal prior to defragmentation has been expanded to include more categories for a more thorough system cleanup. Other changes to the program include improved MFT data display on the drive map, the addition of an automatic check for updates and optimization of all existing defragmentation algorithms.

A free trial download of Auslogics Disk Defrag Pro 4.1 is available from the publisher’s website at www.auslogics.com. The program is sold for a price of $29.95, with one license covering up to 3 PC’s. The publisher offers promotional discounts through their website, as well as their Facebook page and various software distribution channels.
