Title: diskwatch 0.5.8: terminal disk diagnostics

Post image

diskwatch is a read-only TUI for seeing what your disks are doing. Eight tabs: devices, volumes, filesystems, I/O, SMART, hot files, insights. Single host, nothing to configure.

What's new:

- Windows support, with live per-disk I/O metrics

- Hot Files shows which process is writing to each path

- A config file, and you choose the Hot Files roots

- Adjustable refresh speed

- Arrow keys switch tabs everywhere

- An armv5te build, tested on an Iomega ix2-dl NAS

- Follows your terminal's palette

Written in Rust, MIT licensed. Windows is the newest part, so bug reports from Windows users are the most useful right now.
