Diskeeper Corporation revealed findings of a recent IT study showing Defragmentation and Antivirus as the two most important practices for IT administrators.

A panel of 179 Network Administrators was surveyed recently on the software they considered vital to have on their Servers: 48% responded with "Antivirus/Symantec" and 45%, "Defrag/Diskeeper".

These results show how fragmentation and performance related issues have become the core of IT Managers' concerns; All Windows systems suffer from fragmentation but servers are particularly affected by it. Because of multiple user traffic, it is common to see some files broken into thousands - even millions of fragments. This causes a host of intolerable problems such as slow-downs, longer back-ups and anti-virus scans, performance bottlenecks, odd conflicts between applications and crashes.

Diskeeper 2008(R) Server Edition represents the best tool to optimize networks and bring them back to their maximum performance or to prevent their fragmentation in the first place. It does it automatically with no intervention needed on the part of the IT Administrator.

Defrag is performed transparently in the background with InvisiTasking(TM ), Diskeeper's innovative technology that runs in real time, using only idle resources.

InvisiTasking is efficiently combined with I-FAAST(TM) (Intelligent File Access Acceleration Sequencing Technology) that closely monitors file usage and organises the most commonly utilised files for the fastest possible access, boosting file reads and writes up to 80%.

Not only is defrag recognized as a priority in the system maintenance process, it also enables anti-virus scans to run much quicker.
