Advanced Yet Intuitive Functionality
DiskAlertMe is made up of two main components; the main DiskAlertMe application, and the DiskAlertMe Service. These two components work together to configure and execute your scheduled disk checks.
The DiskAlertMe application is mainly for configuring DiskAlertMe and is only used when a user wants to change a setting etc. Its user interface lists your system's disks and allows you to assign alerts to which ever disk or disks you desire.
The DiskAlertMe Service runs in the background as a Windows Service. This Service is where all the magic happens. Based on how you've configured your disks in the DiskAlertMe application the DiskAlertMe Service performs checks and sends notifications appropriately.
Perhaps the best thing about DiskAlertMe using a Windows Service is the fact that you don't have to be logged on or signed into your computer for it to be running. Your computer simply has to be turned on and the DiskAlertMe Service will be running and checking your disks, it's that easy!
