Raxco Software's PerfectDisk Earns NGOHQ's Gold Medal Award

Gaming Product Review Web Site Notes PerfectDisk 7.0 and the PerfectDisk Live Subscription Utility for Thorough and Fast Disk Optimization

Raxco Software, the worldwide leader in disk defragmentation software, announced today that gaming product review Web site NGOHQ has awarded its PerfectDisk® 7.0 and the PerfectDisk Live subscription defragmenter with the site's Gold Medal Award. Highlighted in the NGOHQ review is the thoroughness, speed and ease of use of both free space consolidation utilities.

Some of the highlights that led to the site's most prestigious award include PerfectDisk's free space consolidation feature and its overall solid performance.

"PerfectDisk is an extremely complete and fast disk defragmenter," wrote Steve Ruxton. "PerfectDisk's SMARTPlacement(TM) technology provides a fast and efficient defragmenter that offers single pass file defragmentation and free space consolidation. It can also handle any of today's large disk sizes. Applications will launch faster, access to your files will also be faster," continues the review that can be read at: http://www.ngohq.com/home.php?page=Articles&go=read&arc_id=41

Already the fastest and most complete defragmentation tool available, PerfectDisk 7.0 utilizes a unique peer-to-peer architecture to allow enterprise management, including deployment, scheduling, and reporting, from any system. PerfectDisk Live (http://www.raxco.com/products/perfectdisklive), launched in July, has quickly gained a following among users seeking automatic updates without storing and maintaining hard copies of the software.

"NGOHQ highlights the need for fellow gamers to maintain their drives through complete free space consolidation," said Robert Nolan, president and CEO of Raxco. "PerfectDisk Live is an easy-to-use disk optimization tool for the home user and small to medium businesses and gamers are consistently among our most demanding customers who need to regularly streamline their machines to optimize their gaming experience."

PerfectDisk has long been the defragmenter with more Microsoft® certifications than any other defragmenter on the market and has achieved the highest standards in excellence. PerfectDisk 7.0 was the first defragmenter certified by Microsoft, with independent testing from VeriTest, the testing division of Lionbridge, for Windows Server(TM) 2003 and Windows 2000 Server.
