What Process is Thrashing My Hard Drive?
Have you ever watched your hard drive light come on, and stay on, and wonder what's causing it? Well, I wonder the same thing and I'm putting out a call to the DMT community: does anyone know of an application, freeware or otherwise, that actively scans the processes that are accessing the hard drive and would tell me what's going on? I know I can look at the process tree, but CPU usage and hard drive access aren't always linked. I'm looking specifically for a program that would tell me what process or application is reading/writing data to the hard drive, and perhaps even how much data and where it's going. Anyone heard of an application like this?
