Disk Order ReviewDO saves my life! - Version: 3.0, 5/27/2009 02:48AM PST

andrew.d
I've been using Disk Order for a while not as often as Finder, I just don't like two panel file managers, but every day I have to go back to it when some problem appears, for instance somehow our wifi router resets when copying big files over network, so after every 400-600 Mb copying stops and is not restored, I have no idea what's wrong with it and the only way is to burn DVD if we wanted files on another computer... Disk Order has magical button "pause" while copying so I just can pause copying for 1 second after every 400 Mb
Also it's much easier to edit hidden files, search for non-default types files without using terminal or quickly see files in hex (need for programming).
Slowly but surely I move from Finder to DO.

Disk Order ReviewMy reconsideration - Version: 2.5.1, 10/27/2007 09:28PM PST

My initial "review" - comparing it to ForkLift - was a bit hasty, and I think I should back up my words more. I initially had frustrations with Disk Order because of lack of any response from the company. I don't think that's changed. However, I've now had time to try out both DO and ForkLift and find I prefer DiskOrder for several reasons. First, the tab feature is more practical, and the program remembers tabs upon restart. (ForkLift does not.) Second, DO provides me with a range of view options, including the ability to show disclosure arrows if I want. (ForkLift does not.)

That being said, there are a few features I would like to see added to DO, such as the ability to use a command key to go up one level, rather than having to click the curved arrow. I'd also like to be able to turn off the "Show Size" option.

Overall, though, I would say that DO provides a few more bells and whistles than ForkLift currently offers. We'll have to see how the latter evolves over time. I'll also be curious to see if DO upgrades to Leopard. (I won't be using Leopard, so it's not an issue to me. But it will obviously impact their sales potential.)

One other thing. If you opt to compare both programs, I do not recommend that you open them both at once. For some reason, when I do that, then when I restart I get some very odd visual distortion on my screen. (Another restart clears that out.) Neither program alone seems to cause this; it seems to be some weird interaction between the two of them.
