DiskSpy Solid Description

A small program that acts as a software disk LED for Macs running Mac OS X. DiskSpy Solid is a more advanced version of DiskSpy. In addition to giving users a "software disk LED" that shows local disk reads and writes in the menu bar, DiskSpy Solid also shows network activity in the menu bar.DiskSpy Solid will show when a read or write is occurring on any active physical network interface. Some possible uses include watching reads and writes to network disks (including Apple's iDisk service, AFP/NFS/Samba/WebDAV disks, and FTP servers), watching a program use the network, or simply testing to see if a connection is working.DiskSpy Solid has a bunch of advantages over other programs that have more or less similar features. Many other programs that show network traffic use the command line utility Netstat, which means they may use more CPU time, they are dependent on a program that runs with super-user privileges, they are often fooled by loopback and pipe traffic, and they don't get information in real time. DiskSpy Solid has none of these problems. Limitations: · Until it is registered, it will automatically quit at a completely random time interval. What's New in This Release: · In the spirit of Snow Leopard, DiskSpy & Solid are now built with 64-bit addressing support on both Intel and PowerPC Macs. In addition, the 64-bit versions use Leopard's garbage collection feature, which improves responsiveness somewhat.
