Re: add Transfer Rate to Gadget (sidebar)

Great :D
But of course there is no hurry, this is minor, but welcome!
Yes, use neutral colors as default, but orange is not neutral ;)
When using colors as orange, you can use them with low saturation, so you get a kind of grey orange.

Re: add Transfer Rate to Gadget (sidebar)

Using different colors make it possible to show a value of eg 0 to 500MB in several scales: eg from 0 to 50, from 50 to 100, from 100 to 150. So this way it is possible to show in a small graphic bar, where you actually need a bigger one, if you only use one color. This is not an invention of me, I ...

XXL buttons with Disk Performance?

Hi again, a Second idea is only a minor idea: Maybe it is (not?) achievable to add the disk performance graphic windows of the disk performance tab, to each drive button? To achieve this you can add beside "small"," normal" and "large button", a fourth button size: eg &...

add Transfer Rate to Gadget (sidebar)

Hi again, Suggestions for feature version: 1) It would be nice if you could add to the sidebar Gadget: for each drive a second graphic box with transfer rate, same way as activity graphic box. Since this window is quite small and drives are able to achieve even 500MB/sec (eg SSD) this days, it might...

Re: General access to SMART values database

Yes I know, but sorry that list based on votes is not relevant , is quite subjectively. That is my opinion since I have evaluated the vote rating of two drives I own. Samsung HD103SJ and Western Digital WD10EALX (both 1TB). The HD103SJ is better rated than the WD10EALX?!? But actually the WD10EALX i...
