I have searched google but have not been able to locate what I'm looking
for.
I want a Drive map program that displays how files are located on the hard
drive like what the Defraggler program has.
Not the Pie chart types. I need something that shows where the gaps between
files are, if there are any.

Anyone have one?

Thanks

Maybe this one (DiskView by SysInternals):

You can try Diskview from Sysinternals (now Windows Sysinternals:
<http://technet.microsoft.com/hi-in/sysinternals/default(en-us).aspx>)
available under File and Disk Utilities:
http://technet.microsoft.com/hi-in/sysinternals/bb896650(en-us).aspx

DiskView shows you a graphical map of your disk, allowing you to determine
where a file is located or, by clicking on a cluster, seeing which file
occupies it. Double-click to get more information about a file to which a
cluster is allocated.

From the M$ site:

Download DiskView
(288 KB)

Run DiskView now from Live.Sysinternals.com
(a 567.4 KB download)

Amazing, the run-yourself zip is half the size of the spyware
one .If I wasn't running linux, I probably would have fallen for it.

On second thought: No, it is not. I remembered it showing the free space.
But it doesn't resolve it into "per cluster". So it is just another pie
chart, although not formatted as pie... ;-)
