DiskSpy Publisher Description

While many PC makers put hard disk LEDs on the outside of their computers, Apple hasn't put any disk LEDs on any Macintoshes since the SE/30. Some Mac old-timers may remember the number of products that were available during the System 7 era that provided a software disk LED in the menu bar.

DiskSpy is a small program that acts as a software disk LED for Macs running Mac OS X. DiskSpy sits in the menu bar and gives visual notifications when the OS is reading from or writing to a disk. DiskSpy does not run in the kernel region, does not use any private frameworks or undocumented APIs, does not require any hacks to use, does not trap any low-level I/O calls, does not run as the super user, nor does it actually write to any disk(s), so it is safe to use.

OS: PPC/Intel
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later.
Whats new:
Version 1.4:Removed Mac OS X 10.1.x support. Removed PPP mode, which was really only useful under Mac OS X 10.1.x. Updated contact information, finally. Fixed a bug where sometimes the icons got "stuck" in one position and the program would not work correctly until it was relaunched. DiskSpy now runs at full speed on Intel processors.
