After installing Windows Vista Service Pack 1, you’ll note a change in the Disk Defragmenter GUI. There is a new button added that allows you select the drives that you want to defragment. Note that in Windows Vista pre-SP1, you can use the command-line defrag tool (defrag.exe) to defragment individual drives.
