Drive Activity

Drive Activity is a Windows Vista / Windows 7 Sidebar gadget which displays the workload of your hard drives.

The gadget determines the time each of your hard drives is busy servicing read or write requests and draws a graph from this information. In the settings dialog you can specify which drives to show/hide.

Drive Activity comes in quite handy, if you have more than one hard drive in your computer. Since it is sometimes not that easy to determine which hard drive is currently busy or idle, if you only have your ears and one hard drive LED for all your hard drives. With Drive Activity it is therefore quite easy to keep an eye on possible performance bottlenecks in your system.
