CD ROM Management

[Luke]

Hello,

I have hundreds of Data CDs that I would like to be able to easily
manage with a software. I am still looking for a software which would
allow me to insert the CD in the drive and the software would make a
list of the content. I would then copy this content into a management
software so I would then be able to retrieve the information easily.
Is there any software out there that allow you to do this? I do not
want to have to open the CD directory, copy the files' names into
(let's say Excel) and update this Excel file for all of my CDs - that
would be couter productive...

Thanks for your help !

ThumbsPlus does a good job of tracking offline CD content. It's
also fairly inxepensive.

I use it for CD's but it can do more hard drives as well

Take a look at: http://www.whereisit-soft.com/
Haven't installed it yet myself, but a friend of mine uses it and likes
it.
