As the name infers, the Disk Map displays the layout of physical and logical disks. Physical disks are represented

with rectangle bars that contain small-sized bars. These small-sized bars represent logical disks. Their color

depends on the file system of the appropriate partition.

Large-sized bars display the following information about physical disks:

 Manufacturer,

 Model.

Small-sized bars display the following information about logical disks:

 Serial number,

 Drive letter,

 Total size,

 File system.

Furthermore, it is possible to estimate the used disk space by looking at the size of the bar’s shaded area. The

program offers to choose from several types of the disk layout scaling. It’s done especially to increase the

program usability. For instance, if you’ve got a high capacity hard drive containing both very large (more than

100 GB) and rather small (less than 10 GB) partitions, you can select the logarithmic type to make all partitions

readable, otherwise (selecting the linear type) you won’t be able to see small partitions at all, but thing strips.

On the other hand, if the proportional disk layout is critical for you, the linear type is exactly what you need.

Nevertheless there’s a compromise solution – linear scaling with the minimal limit to small partitions. So if a

partition is too small it will remain readable.

Just click on the arrow icon on the top right side of the Disk Map to select the desired scaling type.

Disk Map is synchronized with the Explorer Bar. Thus by selecting a disk on the Disk Map, the Explorer Bar will

automatically display detailed information on it.

EXPLORER BAR

The Explorer Bar is located in the center of the main window which emphasizes its importance. The bar displays

reference information including:
