Seems to work well for me. I remember reading on another forum to disable the pagefile and reboot before defragging a one drive computer anyway... stops those damn greenies on the defrag display from getting in the way Disabling hibernate mode is a good idea too as that is another greenie
If your page file is static ie same size min and max then it will not fragment anyway,I always run my static page file on a non o/s hard drive also
