  If you want to defrag hard disk not the sql server table you can use disk deframenter comes with windows. If your dbs are attached to SAN check your SAN administrator.

  I've found that in general terms the w2k3 defrag tool is sufficient. Used this on SAN with no problems. It also doesn't cost anything which is always good!
