Does anyone have experience running Diskeeper Pro PREMIER on at least a 1TB
Vista system? I've read their literature, but perfer to hear actual
experience.

I have been running diskeeper 2007 version 11.0.709.0 on my Vista 64 bit
Home Premium, it runs without any problems. It is the professional version,
as you say.
 
Yes. I have a 1TG data drive that I just got through reconfiguring and
Diskeeper Pro got it back in shape for me. I had removed nearly 400GB of
data files from it and was not getting back anything like 400GB of
additional free space as reported in Explorer. I emptied the recycle bin
and defragged with DK11 and in a couple of hours Explorer was showing the
correct amount of white space. It works extremely well on both of my Vista
Ultimate x64 boxes, one with the 1TB data drive and one with a 750GB data
drive. It works equally well on my external drives, both usb and eSATA
connected.

Defragging does not increase the amount of free disk space...emptying
the recyc. bin does, natch.

No but it can correct misreported free space. I have seen it work that way
a few times on my systems.
