unfortunate, as they made decent software. but don't waste your money, since they probably won't update anymore.

I haven't tried Illumination, so i am sure the GUI is nicer and it has extra features compare to Locator, but if you look for a simple indexing app, Locator may save you some money... Once again, i am sure though that Illumination must have adventages on Locator (for exemple Locator hasn't been update in a LONG LONG time). Everything has a price :)

Xscan at Rixstep. Scans an entire hard drive in maybe 15 seconds. No indexes. Looks for evil files too - vulnerabilities. Why indexes?

I suggest that readers give DiskTracker2.3.1 a whirl.
Meanwhile I cannot find where Illumination's stored index is. It is probably a huge space waster.
And the index files, which are definitely not space wasters (they are pretty small files), are stored in ~/Library/Application Support/Illumination.

I could only get it to work with very small disks, and that was already super slow.
It only catalogs the name, size, a few dates, and path. Not very much, actually. Searching is also pretty slow.
Can't compare to CDFinder at all!!!
We are commited to making this a fantastic product, so if you have any features you'd like to see in Illumination, just let us know.

For now, I stick with CDFinder, as it can read a lot more information!
