You can use Piriform's Defraggler to defrag the MFT.

No, DEFRAGGLER won't "defrag" the Master File Table. Tried it many times and it keeps failing.

In the notes under the Google link it says it does, although it isn't as specific in the article I'd linked - so thanks for the clarification.

However, this one does - http://ultradefrag.sourceforge.net/en/index.html

That link just takes me to a search box.

Boggin - 

O&O Defrag 19.5

Defragment the MFT (without rebooting) but does not protect in real time.

---------

Smart Defrag 4 - Theoretically, this should defragment, but after rebooting the system is still  2 fragmented MFT.

What does this one do for you - http://ultradefrag.sourceforge.net/en/index.html but what are you trying to achieve ?

I doubt if the average user even knows about defragging the MFT or even what the MFT is - they just get on with it - I certainly do.

MFT Zone occupies a lot of space on the partition. If you run out of free space for new files, Windows will automatically reduce the sector MFT Zone by half.
Because $Mft file is the same as the other, it can be
fragmented. To prevent NTFS defines MFT-Zone - the area
disk file around $Mft, intended for a larger image.
Clusters of MFT-Zone may be allocated to other files only if
disk space demands.
You can defragment MFT system defragmenter. This solution has only the advantage that it is simple, but relatively ineffective. It is difficult to defragment MFT in normal mode, so it is only a half-measure. Several commercial software can handle the MFT and consolidate it in a nice string of records and set him MFT Zone, which is as it should be. In most cases, the defragmentation is enough, but not always.
The next division MFT Zone again be missing records, and you will need to save up first record [MFT Zone].

The program never tries to prevent fragmentation, it's just a simple tool (.....)

Boggin - I do not understand what is the meaning defragment several hard drives e.g. WD Red 8TB
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4_QCjvkWeI
, is not enough that it takes a long time to extend the task and load input / output for a long time and performance The decreases. The best idea is intelligent real-time writing without having to defragment modern huge disks, with millions of files.
Defragmenting disks is already past and the tools of this type will follow soon forgotten. The future is a intelliwrite save!


edit:

Find interesting applications ...
It's time to test.
WarpDisk, on the contrary, is a file system driver encapsulating the file system, providing it with fragmentation prevention capabilities.

WarpDisk is basically just a defragmenter, but not like any other defragmenter. Conventional defragmenters are user applications or services that scan the entire disk for fragmented files and then defragment all the fragmented files found during the scan. WarpDisk, on the contrary, is a file system driver encapsulating the file system, providing it with fragmentation prevention capabilities.

Furthermore, WarpDisk also comes with a unique Windows boot optimizer, dramatically reducing the time it takes for Windows to boot. Behind the scenes, during boot, WarpDisk reads files ahead and saves them into a memory buffer for fast access.

edit2:
Tested ...
Too many threadsfor disk I/O! This causes an incredible big noise, big the load and memory usage is very high (FULL RAM all time)! Bad thread management, does not release metafile...
I am waiting on the developer's reply to this application (driver)
