About:
DiskCatalogMaker is a specialized utility for macOS designed to catalog disks and folders, creating searchable databases of file contents without needing to mount the media. It excels at managing large collections of offline storage media like hard drives, DVDs, and network volumes by indexing their file structures. This allows users to quickly locate specific files across vast archives, significantly streamlining digital asset management and data retrieval workflows.
Key Features:
  • Rapid indexing of disks, folders, and archives into a compact database
  • Powerful search functionality across all cataloged media instantly
  • Support for reading various archive formats like ZIP and TAR directly
  • Finder integration for easy drag-and-drop cataloging
Use Cases:
  • Managing large collections of external hard drives and backup archives
  • Creating a searchable index of optical media (CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray)
  • Quickly finding a specific file stored across multiple offline volumes
Alternatives:
  • Cataloger – Modern alternative with a focus on metadata tagging and a more native macOS UI.
  • Spotlight – Built-in macOS search, but limited to connected and indexed drives, not offline media.
