It's been suggested that I start a Free Software thread, so that all free software is located in one thread, rather than many.

If anyone out there sees what looks like a quality piece of software for free, please list it in this thread, with an appropriate link. It will benefit everyone.

This will start things off,... here's Auslogics Disk Defrag Pro. It normally sells for $14.99 to around $19.99, yours FREE TODAY ONLY!

Giveaway of the Day - free licensed software daily. Today: Auslogics Disk Defrag Pro - The professional edition of Auslogics

Good catch Ham-n-Eggs!
There's also a free version of auslogics Disk Defrag I've been using for years -- never caused a problem and works much faster than Windows defrag. So, when your subscription to the pro version runs out, just start using the free version.

For overclockers:
CPU-Z
GPU-Z
Prime95
MSI Afterburner
EVGA Precision X
Realtemp
Coretemp
 
Yo Wiz, something we need to research.

This new Pro version says that there is a special set of algorithms for defragmenting solid state drives. These new protocols are supposed to dramatically limit writes, thereby having little, or no effect on drive life.

I'll need to do some research when I have time. It's the first I hear of this.

Yup, read about this awhile ago but dismissed it thinking access time on an SSD is so faster already, why put wear on the SSD with a defrag tool. But, yes, I'll look into it too.
