>>What opinions do you have on using disk optimziation software (such as Diskeeper or Perfect Disk) on a Windows Server which has 2 drives installed, one mirrored to the other. Good idea, bad idea, or ... ?

However, this is not something I do every week or even month. Once a year is probably about it. For a computer that never had a full HD its unlikely that it is heavily fragmented to a point that it hurts performance.

thanks for the feedback.
