Diskeeper Software Bundled With Select Intel Desktop Boards to System Builders


EAST GRINSTEAD, England, August 21-- Diskeeper® announced that Intel® will ship a full version of Diskeeper's flagship automatic defragmenter on their next-generation motherboard CDs to an estimated 4 - 6 million system builders worldwide.

Bobby Johnson, Diskeeper Vice President of Strategic Alliances, notes that the Windows built-in defragmenter is "a manual solution and was never designed to handle the degree of traffic which goes through a modern day working man's computer. I applaud Intel for recognizing fragmentation as a problem and offering their system builders a real solution with Diskeeper."

In the white paper entitled, The Impact of Disk Fragmentation, storage expert Joe Kinsella found that heavy fragmentation can cause applications such as Microsoft® Word to slow down by 15x, Internet Explorer by 2x, anti-virus scanner by 3x and Outlook by 3x. With such performance hits taking their toll on computers, the benefit from adding Diskeeper to Intel's motherboard CDs is a significant offering to their system builder base.

"I am very pleased to continue our relationship with Diskeeper Corporation by offering Diskeeper with our next-generation Intel® Desktop Boards. The benefit of the Diskeeper product decreasing fragmentation resulting in a better computing experience is something our customers have been very positive about," says Phillip Chen, Marketing Director, Intel.
