I don't know of any PD/SW defragmenters, but I want to second the
recommendation of DiskExpress.  There have been three cases where my Mac
crashed in the middle of a compact operation; when I rebooted, DE told
me what file it was working on and that that file just might be corrupt.
It has yet to have actually corrupted a file for me, however.

It's safe, AND effective.
