Disk Karamba is a disk monitoring SuperKaramba theme.

Disk Karamba is not very special but perhaps will be useful for someone. I used for it one icon from MetalGold icon theme.

Secret Disk creates password protected invisible disk on your PC to store any private files of yours. It will appear as usual disk on your PC. It will completely disappear within one second when you need top privacy. Files stored on this disk will be protected. It is password protected. It will act as usual disk to store your files, pictures, videos. When Secret Disk is visible a small icon blinks in the tray. Just click it and Secret Disk will disappear within one second and all your files on it will be protected. You can set to hide your Secret Disk when Screen Saver starts (computer is idle), or when you press emergency button F12.

Disk CleanUp for Windows 95/NT is a freeware disk utility designed to clear previously deleted files completely. Deleting a file will normally just remove the files directory entry, leaving the data itself on the disk. Disk CleanUp will completely eliminate the contents of your deleted files. It gives you the option to specify an NSA-approved disk-erasing method and background execution priority. Disk CleanUp works with any FAT16 or FAT32 hard drive, as well as MS Windows NTFS volumes. Disk CleanUp can be configured to optionally place its program icon in the taskbar notification tray.

Disk Imager is a useful utility that will help you create disk images from folders with customized file system formats, custom volume names, AES-128 bit encryption, and your choice of a few different disk image formats.

With Disk Imager you can retrieve very detailed information, displayed in textual format, about any disk image. Also, Disk Imager brings back the lost ability to resize disk images, that was lost in OS X 10.3.

DTI Disk Wipe description
Disk Wipe completely and permanently overwrites and destroys all existing data on a hard disk, overwriting every physical byte Disk Wipe completely and permanently overwrites and destroys all existing data on a hard disk, overwriting every physical byte of the disk.

Once Disk Wipe has been run, all data from every sector will have been eliminated. Disk Wipe transforms a multi-hour task into a job that can be done in minutes.

In addition, many drive overlays (DDO) or special partitioning software is oftentimes difficult to remove by a simple F-disk and Format. Disk Wipe makes this task easy.

Two simple steps will completely remove any DDO or special partitioning information.

Yes, this program will permanently erase and destroy all data and allow you to overwrite the disk as many times as you like and still conform to US Department of Defense requirements. (DoD Standard 5220.22-M)

AppleII::Disk is a Perl module for block-level access to Apple II disk image files.

SYNOPSIS

use AppleII::Disk;
my $disk = AppleII::Disk->new(image.dsk);
my $data = $disk->read_block(1); # Read block 1
$disk->write_block(1, $data); # And write it back :-)

AppleII::Disk provides block-level access to the Apple II disk image files used by most Apple II emulators. (For information about Apple II emulators, try the Apple II Emulator Page at http://www.ecnet.net/users/mumbv/pages/apple2.shtml.) For a higher-level interface, use the AppleII::ProDOS module.
AppleII::Disk provides the following methods:

$disk = AppleII::Disk->new($filename, [$mode])

Constructs a new AppleII::Disk object. $filename is the name of the image file. The optional $mode is a string specifying how to open the image. It can consist of the following characters (case sensitive):

r Allow reads (this is actually ignored; you can always read)
w Allow writes
d Disk image is in DOS 3.3 order
p Disk image is in ProDOS order

If you dont specify d or p, then the format is guessed from the filename. .PO and .HDV files are ProDOS order, and anything else is assumed to be DOS 3.3 order.

If you specify w to allow writes, then the image file is created if it doesnt already exist.

$size = $disk->blocks([$newsize])

Gets or sets the size of the disk in blocks. $newsize is the new size of the disk in blocks. If $newsize is omitted, then the size is not changed. Returns the size of the disk image in blocks.

This refers to the logical size of the disk image. Blocks outside the physical size of the disk image read as all zeros. Writing to such a block will expand the image file.

When you create a new image file, you must use blocks to set its size before writing to it.

$contents = $disk->read_block($block)

Reads one block from the disk image. $block is the block number to read.
$contents = $disk->read_blocks(@blocks)

Reads a sequence of blocks from the disk image. @blocks is a reference to an array of block numbers. As a special case, block 0 cannot be read by this method. Instead, it returns a block full of 0 bytes. This is how sparse files are implemented. If you want to read the actual contents of block 0, you must call $disk->read_block(0) directly.

$contents = $disk->read_sector($track, $sector)

Reads one sector from the disk image. $track is the track number, and $sector is the DOS 3.3 logical sector number. This is currently implemented only for DOS 3.3 order images.

$disk->fully_allocate()

Expands the the physical size of the disk image file to match the logical size of the disk image. It will be expanded as a sparse file if the filesystem containing the image file supports sparse files.

$disk->write_block($block, $contents, [$pad])

Writes one block to the disk image. $block is the block number to write. $contents is the data to write. The optional $pad is a character to pad the block with (out to 512 bytes). If $pad is omitted or null, then $contents must be exactly 512 bytes.

$disk->write_blocks(@blocks, $contents, [$pad])

Writes a sequence of blocks to the disk image. @blocks is a reference to an array of block numbers to write. $contents is the data to write. It is broken up into 512 byte chunks and written to the blocks. The optional $pad is a character to pad the data with (out to a multiple of 512 bytes). If $pad is omitted or null, then $contents must be exactly 512 bytes times the number of blocks.

As a special case, block 0 cannot be written by this method. Instead, that block of $contents is just skipped. This is how sparse files are implemented. If you want to write the contents of block 0, you must call $disk->write_block directly.

$disk->write_sector($track, $sector, $contents, [$pad])

Writes one sector to the disk image. $track is the track number, and $sector is the DOS 3.3 logical sector number. $contents is the data to write. The optional $pad is a character to pad the sector with (out to 256 bytes). If $pad is omitted or null, then $contents must be exactly 256 bytes. This is currently implemented only for DOS 3.3 order images.

$padded = AppleII::Disk::pad_block($data, [$pad, [$length]])

Pads $data out to $length bytes with $pad. Returns the padded string; the original is not altered. Dies if $data is longer than $length. The default $pad is " ", and the default $length is 512 bytes.

If $pad is the null string (not undef), just checks to make sure that $data is exactly $length bytes and returns the original string. Dies if $data is not exactly $length bytes.

pad_block is a subroutine, not a method, and is not exported. You probably dont need to call it directly anyway, because the write_XXX methods will call it for you.

Piechart Disk description
Piechart Disk is a handy application that allows you to see where your disk space is going in an easy to read pie-chart. Piechart Disk is a handy application that allows you to see where your disk space is going in an easy to read pie-chart.

You select the top directory to scan, and Piechart Disk scans the directory then displays an interactive directory and file list with pie-chart.

Since Piechart Disk sorts the directories and files, the largest directories and files are at the top of the list.

Click the interactive file and directory list green plus and red minus icons to open and close directories, changing what is displayed in the pie-chart.

Right click a directory or file for that entrys detailed information.

Cleaning up your harddisk can be a time-consuming activity, but Disk Recon makes this job a lot easier. Disk Recon allows you to investigate folder sizes, find duplicate files, examine your disk usage, monitor files and directories and more. New features include batch file renaming, batch attribute changing and file / image preview. With its intuitive interface you can easily find all the information you need to clean up your harddisk and let our computer run smoother.

It is very important to know how diskspace is distributed in folders and subfolders. Disk Recon has an explorer-like treeview which shows the total size of the folder and the total number of files in it. The graphical display makes it even easier to understand this information.

You might be surprised how many duplicate files are scattered over your harddisk which are taking up valuable disk space. Disk Recon can find duplicate files by filename, date, size or contents (CRC checksum for 100% accuracy). You have the option to delete or copy the found duplicates.

With the bulk rename utility of Disk Recon you can rename thousands of images, photos, documents or mp3 files in a few seconds with just a few mouseclicks.

Disk Recon has an optional file and image preview so you can immediately see the contents of the files youre working with.

This handy program allows you to see where your disk space is going in an easy to read pie-chart. You select the top directory to scan, and Piechart Disk scans the directory then displays an interactive directory and file list with pie-chart. Since Piechart Disk sorts the directories and files, the largest directories and files are at the top of the list.

i.Disk - Ever wanted to know where all the used space on your hard disk was hiding?
i.Disk scans directory trees and displays the total space used by each directory in an easy to use form. You can drill down into the directorys to understand the layout of space. And when you want to clean up your disk there are same handy tools there to help. The directory called . is the space used by files in the base directory you are scanning from.

i.Disk is a software that allows you view disk space.


Usage:
Browse to a directory -or- click on one of the disks listed on the left to start scanning. Once the scan is complete the red cancel button will grey out. The entry marked "." relates to the files in the directory your scanning from and not any of the subdirectories. If you attempt to delete this then youll be deleting the directory you scanning from and all files and folders contained within. This is probably not what you intended. Especially if you scanning a whole disk (i.e. C:)
Then you can open any sub-directories by clicking the + next to the name.

Each entry in the list has a right click menu to:

Touch...
This sets the modified time on a set of files in the subdirectory and all its children to the current time. You can specify multiple extensions by separating with space character, e.g.:
*.gif *.png *.html
Delete Files...
This deletes some or all of the files in the subdirectory and all its children. The directories are left intact. You can specify multiple extensions by separating with space character.
Delete Directory...
This deletes all of the files and directories in the subdirectory then removes the subdirectory as well.
