is it true that vista automatically defrags its file...and thats why when we do search it is able to search quickly then its predecessors?? what i mean is, is defragging in vista neccessary, as told by my friends its not required in vista...?

It is enabled in the system maintenance by default, you can uncheck it if you want.
1. Click Start
2. Click Control Panel
3. Selct the Control Panel Home
4. Click System and Maintenance
5. Under the Administrative Tools section at the bottom, click Defragment your hard drive
6. You may need to grant permission to open the disk fragmenter
7. Click or unclick Run automatically (recommended) depending if you want this feature enabled or disabled.
8. Click OK

the question is not how to uncheck, but is the vistas defrag good or should i go for some external software..?

It is good, but then again it is my personal opinion. The best option would be to try it out and compare with any other external software...

I would stick with Vista's defrag. Diskeeper does a good job however the vista one works pretty well also.

Defragmentation combined the scattered memory and provides a large storage area or memory.Defragmentation reduces the searching complexity of the RAM.
