The driftfile contents are evidence that the NTP client is doing its job: Keeping the local H/W clock set to UTC standard. If the local clock didn't drift there would be no need for NTP!
If you want to have no drift you will have to find a Motherboard Mfgr that supplies an atomic clock on the board.
Or get your own accurate time source, such as a GPS receiver. There are also short wave receivers available, that allow a computer to sync to WWV. Heathkit sold a couple several years ago, but I've seen others since then. As I recall, the Heathkit would keep a computer accurate to within 10 mS.
