Drive Info Gadget

Drive Info Gadget displays on your desktop information about your drives, such as occupied and free space. This gadget is very easy to install and set up, even if your experience with software tools is limited.

The interface is based on a small, rectangular frame that you can move to any position of the screen. Thanks to the Windows built-in options, it is possible to set this frame to stay on top of other windows.

Drive Info Gadget is not intrusive and you can get a glimpse of the current drive situation even while working in other applications.

Another default Windows option enables the frame to stay on top of other windows. Plus, you can adjust its opacity.

From the Widget Preferences panel that is accessible via the right-click menu, you can select the drive letter; it can be either a local drive, removable one, mounted image, CD or DVD. Drive Info Gadget shows the drive type, occupied, unoccupied and total size, percent and a meter.

Drive Info Gadget has a good response time, shows accurate information and uses a minimal amount of CPU and RAM, so it doesn't affect overall performance. We have not come across any issues in our tests, since the app did not hang or crash. Unfortunately, Drive Info Gadget has not been updated for a while.
