Hi.

Well... I for one, could imagine an application capable of showing a virtual
harddisk - in full blown DirectX or OpelGL 3D :

3D model: where is the head right now, lastest writes shown with red tracks,
latest writes with green... Ability to zoom and rotate disk and getting
realtime updates. - That would be awsome, nerdy and pretty coll wouldn't it?

Graphing: busy time in % during the year, month, day, hour, minute...

Tray icon: Blink like LED on cabinet

Best regards
  Michael F. S. Christensen
