Win2K Server 64k clusters

    Does anyone know of a tool that will defrag 64k clusters on Win2k Server/SQL Server. As I have set the clusters to 64k for SQL best practices and performance. Now I have run into an issue where I cannot find a tool to defrag the drive with my SQL databases and other important relational programs on it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I believe http://www.sysinternals.com/ has a defrag tool that handles different block size.

    I'm told diskkeeper does too. My current employer only uses default so I've not had reason to look into this of late, previously I used different block sizes and I'm positive the tool I used came from above.

    Thanks, but Diskeeper only works on XP 2003 Server 64k clusters. I looked at the sysinternals and the only one I saw was for NT and nothing for win2k server. I guess i'll keep looking.
