Hi Product Hunt, I’m Joe. I’m a filmmaker and photographer, not a programmer. After fifteen years of shoots I had 31 hard drives and no idea what was on most of them. This summer I needed one shot from an old drone film of Houtouwan, an abandoned fishing village in China. It was on a hard drive. Which one? The only way to find out was to plug drives in one at a time. So on July 4 I started building the tool I wanted. I can’t write Rust, so I built it with Claude. I described the problem, ran every build on my own drives, and sent screenshots of whatever broke. 19 releases in 12 weeks. The real drives shaped it more than any plan did. On day six I added a speed test. The first SSD I ran it on wrote at 2 MB/s while its own health report said it was fine. Now the app trusts measurements over the label. Search also learned to tell you which copy to fetch, because the same footage turned out to live on several drives. There’s no AI inside the app, on purpose. It makes zero network connections and there’s no account. It’s free for 2 drives with every feature included. I’d love to hear how you keep track of your drives today.
