Getting started

1. Open inDISK Studio. In the setup assistant, choose Start Empty, or Restore Backup… if you have a backup file.
2. Press + next to CATEGORIES in the sidebar to create a category.
3. Press ADD DRIVE (⌘N) to add a drive: disk model, name, category, capacity, format, health, last backup, contents and notes.
4. Select a drive to see it in the Inspector. Press UNLOCK to edit; changes save as you type.
5. File → Save Data Backup… (⌘S) saves the whole catalogue; File → Export Excel Details… (⇧⌘E) saves an .xlsx spreadsheet.

In-app help: Help → inDISK Studio Guide (⇧⌘/).

Common questions

Does the app send my catalogue anywhere?

No. The app makes no network connections and has no account or sync.

Does inDISK Studio check my drives’ health?

Not in this version. Health is a percentage you record, for example from your drive maker’s utility.

Why is a backup date yellow or red?

Backups older than 30 days show in yellow, and older than 60 days in red.

How do I move my catalogue to another Mac?

Save a data backup (⌘S), copy the file to the other Mac, then use inDISK Studio → Restore Data Backup… there. Restoring replaces the catalogue on that Mac.

I used DISK Studio before

Open DISK Studio, choose File → Save Data Backup, then restore that file in inDISK Studio. The backup format is the same.

I deleted a drive by mistake

Choose Edit → Undo (⌘Z) to bring it back. Undo is cleared when you quit the app; after that, restore your most recent data backup or add the drive again.
