Hard Drive organizing software?

[ryan29121]

I have a 500gb hard drive that I am always adding things to like music, files, etc. I'm looking for some software that can keep organize things for me and give me a up to date history of when things were added, changed, or deleted. Thanks in advance for your help.

Explorer.exe?

Not sure what you're looking for unless you mean software to synchronize a drive with a back up drive? I'm looking for something like that myself. I have a backup drive on both my PC's and get sick of having to copy a whole drive full of files to the other one every so often to make sure they both have everything.

Here, have an open-source applet that'll do pretty much what you describe -


echo off
cls
c:
cd\
echo Shall create some folders now.
Pause
md Music
md Documents
md Porn
md warez
Echo Okay, created folders for music, docs, porn, and warez. As if your PC has anything else. Shall copy files into them now, on a fully automated basis, that just might totally **** up your file structure. Still, it's your PC, not mine, so I can't say I reallly care that much.
xCopy c:\*.mp3 c:\music /s
xcopy c:\*.doc c:\documents /s
xCopy c:\*.jpg c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.avi c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.mpg c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.vob c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.divx c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.rm c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.mov c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.mp2 c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.wmv c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.gif c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.png c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.jpeg c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.bmp c:\porn /s
xCopy c:\*.psd c:\porn /s
xcopy c:\*.iso c:\warez
echo Okey, all docs in the docs folder, all music in the music folder, every other file I could find, in the prn folder. It probably is, anyway. You'll have a nightmare finding files now, but it's all neatly tucked into folders at least. Man. Bet you wish you'd just used Explorer.exe like Elvin said, now. Right click, new folder, move files, ftw!
echo (c 2008 dxx)
pause
echo If you actually used this, I'm going to laugh at you.

I don't know if any of this helps the OP, but SyncToy is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks.
