HDD Activity Guage/LED Tray Icon download

Show physical HDD (fixed or removable) activities in LED style or performance meter gauge style. Both Win32/Win64 versions are provided. (Virus/Torjan scanned using Avira Pro.)

The memory footprint is small and the CPU utilization is also very low (~ 0%), you can verify this by opening your Task Manager (Ctrl-Shift-Esc).

This is originally mainly for my personal use since newer notebooks does not have HDD LED light so I quickly write a replacement using Visual Studio C++ 2010.

Some of the existing HDD indicators constantly consume ~2% of CPU. Also most of them can't show individual actitivity for each physical HDD. For more than one HDD you need to run this program separately using different command line arguments. You can create short-cuts to save your settings. Please see ReadME.txt for more details. (A TODO item is to add these command line arguments into the GUI).

Hopefully this tool helps.
