Yo! I would have some suggestions for my favorite (the most unique) SD option - automatic defrag. That's basically the only reason why I'm using SD instead of any other defrag software - because I like when I can set the program up and not pay attention to it anymore.
Currently there are 2 of its options to set up:
- Start Auto Defrag when system idle exceeds (x min)
- Pause Auto Defrag when resource usage exceeds (x %)
I would like if you also could add:
- Don't start Auto Defrag if PC is running an application in Full Screen
Also, currently on my PC SD v3 system tray icon is static. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that, because I remember earlier versions had it dynamic (icon would change if defraging is started). So, I'd like to have that dynamic/changing icon back.
EDIT: Oh, I see that if I manually do "Analyze" or "Defrag", icon is dynamic. I guess it just doesn't work when Auto Defrag is going on.
It's either some bug, or it's something related to my PC only. I just know that I didn't notice the icon being dynamic while my HD is crackling. Once I've opened the SD, I could see that Auto Defrag is actually performing.

Good thing to have here could be a possibility to reinstall (overwrite) the latest driver even if it's already installed.
For example, my GPU driver is showed as updated to the latest version, but I'm still not sure if it's done properly, because I can't run certain games by OpenGL (CS 1.6, Warzoone 2100 etc) even my GPU supports it. That's why I'd like to reinstall it by Driver Booster and see if it'll change anything. ;)

This is what I've noticed as a problem about Automatic Defrag. When it is performed, it pauses if resource usage exceeds 60% (set by default). The problem is that it doesn't continue defrag that easily then - even if system idle exceeds again much more than 5 minutes (set by default).
So, I think that SD4 should care more about forcing the Automatic Defrag to continue the defraging process once it's paused.
Anyway, I'm quite pleased what I've seen in SD4 for now. ;)
