Raxco Software - PerfectDisk 2000

Mr. Bob Nolan of Raxco Software will give a 45 minute presentation on
PerfectDisk 2000 hard disk defragmentation program and other Raxco
products.  He will cover the basics of hard disk defragmentation,
provide helpful user tips and answer member questions.
 
PerfectDisk 2000 redefines disk defragmentation for the Windows 2000 and
Windows XP operating systems, addressing an issue that Microsoft and
other experts find is often the cause of poor PC system performance. 

Built for enterprise systems and built to handle large disk drives,
PerfectDisk 2000 provides the most comprehensive solution for
defragmentation by optimizing virtually every file on the system,
including the Master File Table ($MFT), all metadata, paging files, and
directories.  PerfectDisk 2000's patented SMART PlacementT technology
arranges files on a disk to ensure that free space is consolidated and
the future rate of fragmentation is minimized.

Disk drives and RAID sets of 100 gigabytes to a Terabyte or more are
becoming more and more common.  The Windows' built-in defragmenters as
well as other defragmentation tools on the market are simply not
designed to handle these disk sizes.

PerfectDisk 2000 is the fastest and most complete defragmentation
solution available for workstations and servers.  PerfectDisk 2000
distinguishes itself in many ways from other defragmentation tools.
Features Include:
 - Defragments files in a single pass
 - Designed to defragment large and complex environments where other
products can't
 - Patented optimization technology
 - Requires as little as 5% free space
 - Consolidates free space to slow the rate of re-fragmentation
 - Automatic scheduling of defragmentation runs across the enterprise
 - Certified for Windows 2000 and Designed for Windows XP - Optimized

INPORTANT NOTE: Every CPCUG member attending the February General
Meeting will receive a free Evaluation copy of PerfectDisk 2000!.  There will also be a drawing for the full version.
