I've been using DiskKeeper 2008 for a while now and is a pretty good defragmenter utility. 

Previously I was running on XP and it I did realize a ‘responsiveness’ difference on that machine more than I noticed on my new machine (Dell XPS M1710).  On my new box I installed it probably 3-4mths after I got my machine so that might be a reason why I did not notice much.  On my old box I installed it probably 1.5yrs receiving the box so that’s probably why I noticed a bigger difference.  Looking at the stats in Diskeeper it’s been running everyday without a problem and is defraging files (currently I'm at 10% fragmentation) everyday.  If you hard drive seems to be thrashing instead of re-formatting try a defrag first with DiskKeeper.
