Review summary	Google Desktop Search is a slick and speedy search tool for finding information on your hard drive. It lacks a file viewer and media player but is very fast and easy to use.	This capable utility gives you complete control over your drive partitions, but this version doesn't justify an upgrade.	If you're too lazy to run the Windows defragger, Diskeeper 8.0 will automatically defragment your drive for you.	If you need to partition your live hard drive, Norton PartitionMagic 8 is still the application to beat.	Its set-it-and-forget-it ease of use makes Diskeeper 7.0 the best defrag tool available. It's pricey, however, so if you're not picky and don't need granular defrag control, Microsoft's free utility should suffice.
