Defraggler, Auslogics Disk Defrag Pro, and Diskeeper Pro

Community

Looking for some insight as some of you have most likely used other defragging products. For years I used Diskeeper Pro until this product no longer supported external drive. Then I purchased Piriform Defraggler have used other Piriform products. Satisfied with Defraggler I have used it for years. Recently I purchased a LaCie 6TB drive and found that it would take 1 - 2 days to defrag ~30 percent of the drive, typically spending 10 - 12 hours at the 48-49 percent mark. So I've tried a competing product from Auslogics called Disk Defrag Pro which will defrag my Lacie in ~ 4 to 6 hours. Obviously not all defragging software are equal. Any one have a reason why Drefragger would take nearly 2 day to defreag an external drive. Because I own both products I typically use Defraggler on my local (I prefer Piriforms interface) and use Auslogic on my external (for at least a year until my subscription runs out). Personally I prefer Piriform's products and will remain with Piriform. But anyone have any insights regarding the defragging time (and or capabilities) between Piriform and Auslogics.
