- Disk Buddy
- Keep track of your archive disks. A utility you can use to build and maintain catalogs of your removable disks. It features a familiar Explorer-style interface that lists folder structures, files, and file sizes and dates -- just as if the disk were actually available. If it is available, you can run programs and view documents from within the Disk Buddy interface. If not, you'll be prompted to insert the proper disk when needed. You can add comments to individual files that you can access with a right-click, perform file searches, and view (but not access) the contents of zip files. On the downside, you can only access one catalog at a time and there are no context menus.

- Spinrite 5 ($) , 200kb , Rating: 5
- This is so important that I added this program even though it is not freeware. It keeps your hard drives in good condition, and if they crash, picks up the pieces and restores the hardware. I used Spinrite 2 in 1991, it disappeared for a while, and now it's back. This program must be run from a DOS prompt, not a DOS window.
