Do you notice that free space on your hard drive decreases with a time?
Either other users of your computer "forget" to delete unnecessary files, or
Windows write something on the disk, or another program do this... And you can
sometimes write something, but forget to delete later. Afterwards it is
already difficult to understand, where - what (especially on large disks).
And you will have to periodically comb out thoroughly the whole disk in search
of rubbish.
The program "SpaceChecker" decides this problem. It will show you, where
exactly, in what folders and how many rubbish (or not rubbish) there was
appear from a time of previous checking.

As our life races ahead with blazing speed, our computing demands grow correspondingly. Can you imagine that several years ago a 40 Mb hard drive was more than enough for holding all data in an average company? The technology evolution brings new demands and the 'massive 20 Gb hard drive' we have bought only a couple of years ago seems really tiny today.
There are three reasons for the growing storage space demand. First, media comes digital and we smoothly move our photos, music and videos to hard drives. Second, applications feature more and more multimedia content which also requires additional drive space. Third, we get completely lost in all those files without ever knowing which of them are actually important and worth keeping and which are not. Is there a way to clean our hard drives out better than purchasing another 'massive storage unit'?
Yes, there is! Presenting Space Searcher, the unique tool intended to save your precious hard drive space and, what's more important, your money!
Space Searcher allows you visually manage your hard drive space by letting you know which files and folders take too much space on your hard drive. The application is capable of detecting heavyweight folders and display several types of graphs, charts and numbers to make sure you know what exactly is stored on your hard drive.
Most people get amazed at how much trash they store on hard drives without even thinking they have such files. They get even more amazed at how much spaced can be freed up at no cost!
Space Searcher is capable of running disk space usage analysis both on small home systems and on enterprise networks. Reports can be saved to Excel or HTML files or printed out immediately providing in-depth analysis of disk space usage. Sorting data in reports is as easy as running the program itself - couple of clicks and you are ready!
Multiple researches indicate that Space Searcher can save up to $500 per machine on hard disk replacements! Impressed? Download free

#42 HDD Temperature
download software "PalickSoft" website screenshot

There are many reasons why hard-drives get damaged, and overheating is probably the most common one.
If you remember your physics lessons well, you know that spinning something at several thousand revolutions per minute causes heat, plenty of heat. That is why servers and computers have coolers, fans and other gadgets that prevent overheating. But as fans get plugged, coolers stop working, or too many hard-drives get added - the risk of "frying" your HDDs and losing data increases drastically. So how do you monitor your HDD temperature to make sure you data is always save? Simply download HDD Temperature from PalickSoft.
This utility comes in two versions - regular and pro. The regular version is intended for home users who have only single hard-drive and is totally free. Using S.M.A.R.T. technology included in all modern HDDs, HDD Temperature checks and monitors the temperature of your hard drives; you can also set the maximum value of drive temperature so that you will be warned should this temperature be exceeded.
S.M.A.R.T. stands for "Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology" and is currently the most advanced technology in this field; this technology was developed by HDD manufacturers and is supported by IBM, Maxtor, Seagate, Hitachi and many others.
HDD Temperature Pro is created specially for small and large companies that have many computers and need to monitor multiple hard-drives. This "beefed up" version has several features that the regular version does not. For example, it can monitor several HDDs simultaneously and can send warning messages to a specified e-mail address or certain computer in the network. Importantly, it can automatically force overheated system to hibernate, protecting both HDD and unsaved data. You also can run this application as network service, making this tool is ideal for corporate networks.

download software "PalickSoft" website screenshot
PalickSoft
Control hard disk temperature in real-time. HDD Temperature helps you prevent hard drive failures and associated data loss by giving an early warning about the disks overheating or being too cold. In case of a critical overheat, HDD Temperature can shut down the PC, while moderate overheating is dealt with email alerts. Get extended information about the disk, and see basic disk health statistics for all types of hard drives including IDE/PATA, SATA, SCSI, and USB disks.

HDD Temperature incorporates the results of researches in hard drive reliability, adding lower temperature thresholds to warn about disks being too cool as well as too hot. Statistically, newer hard drives are more sensitive to working temperatures being too low while older disks are more susceptible to higher working temperatures. HDD Temperature now protects against both temperature extremes.
Keep information safe and prevent data loss by controlling your disks' temperature and health status. HDD Temperature gathers and reports general health information of your hard disk, reporting possible issues well ahead of time. In case of a severely used disk with higher chances of failure, HDD Temperature advises about a replacement.

HDD Temperature is designed to keep overheating under control no matter whether or not a user is logged in to the system. Running as a system service, HDD Temperature can alert you or a network administrator by email or even go as far as shutting down the PC if more than a moderate overheating occurs.
System administrators can set up HDD Temperature with no user-accessible interface in service-only mode. Service operation ensures that HDD Temperature works without triggering any Vista's UAC prompts, does not require administrative privileges or a logged-in user.

HDD Temperature is not limited to thermal control, and reports all kinds of information about the disks, including the disk OEM, its exact model number and the number of hours the disk has been used.

#46 CaptureWizLite Screen Capture
download software "PixelMetrics" website screenshot
PixelMetrics
Fast & easy screen capture for busy people who need simple tools to save time. Capture any portion of your screen for printing, emailing, inserting into documents, or saving as small files (jpg, gif, png, or bmp). Use captures every day to explain, remember, organize, get support and help others.

A new, patent-pending, speed capture tool works two ways: drag normally or single click. Just drag the mouse to capture any screen area, or click once to capture whole screen objects. Thanks to the software's intelligent scanning system, one click is all you usually need to capture the exact pixels you want. Plus, a new frame capture tool enables you to interactively compose perfect shots by dragging an open frame.

You'll be able to print only what you want from the web, minus ads. Capture information from windows that don't provide copy or print functions. Create a printed checklist from any on-screen report. Email screen shots of error messages or complex problems. Remember hardware and software settings using pictures. Get or give help by sending those pictures to others. The package suggests many more time saving ideas, but you'll have fun thinking up your own! CaptureWizLite by PixleMetrics - www.pixelmetrics.com

#48 SIGuardian

Learn about HDD failure BEFORE it happens and save your valuable data. SIGuardian uses S.M.A.R.T technology built in every modern hard-drive to accurately predict the date when using a particular hard-drive is no longer safe.
S.M.A.R.T. stands for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology. Every time the hard-drive is started, it performs a self-checkup and records a certain value for each of its attributes (properties). The values range between 0 (non-functioning) to 250 (excellent condition). The average value for most attributes is 100. When the safety threshold is crossed (20 for most attributes), it means that a hard-drive is unstable and you should back up your data.
SIGuardian displays all HDD attribute values, whether they are safe and not, real-time. This tool is also capable of monitoring HDD temperature and alerting you over the network or via e-mail when overheating or failure possibility is diagnosed. You don?t have to monitor HDD condition ? the program can do it itself.
The program works in two modes. The first one is attribute check upon startup. In this mode, the program compares previous attribute values to the new ones and, if the are unchanged, automatically closes itself. Likewise, if SIGuardian discovers that some attribute value is lower, you will be alerted.
In the second mode, this software application is continuously running and checks for the attribute values periodically according to the user specified intervals.
While the program is simple and straightforward enough to be used by any computer user at home or office, SIGuardian comes with special features that make it an ideal tool for monitoring multiple hard-drives. The program is very easy to deploy over networks of any size. In addition, SIGuardian is capable of supplying other HDD information, such as standards supported, speed modes, current working mode, to name a few.
Download your FREE trial version and never worry about HDD failures again.
