Guest Spacewalker Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 Hi, I am looking for a utility that could track the historical development of my harddisk. I know "Treesize"... that's basically a nice tool, but lacks a historical database. "DiscScout" is pretty nice... but I wonder if there is anything else that I could evaluate ? thx

Bascially, I am not fond of java... I the past I had too many compatibility problems with different java runtime versions.... And as the developer's website states, there are some problems concerning CPU and memory usage.And it is slow. And I can not see that it works with remote drives using UNC and credentials (essential for LAN usage...) OK.. it is free. That's pretty fair for occasional home users I think. But I will go for DiskScout... http://www.discScout.com thx & bye
