With a comprehensive catalog of files, creating backups and recovering data in case of loss or corruption becomes more efficient.
Scans disks quickly, even large ones, and stores file metadata (name, size, date, attributes). Compression is decent – a 4.7 GB DVD catalog might take only a few MB.
Handles virtually all storage types, including floppy disks, ZIP drives, JAZ disks, and network drives.
If you spend more than 10 minutes a month looking for a file on an external drive, you are wasting time that software can solve for free.
