Editor's Review of FlexTk Professional
With terabyte hard drives now being somewhat less expensive than refueling your car, disk space on the average PC has exploded, and it can be difficult to manipulate all those hundreds of thousands of files. FlexTK Professional is a powerful tool for discovering just what's on your hard drive, and doing something about it. FlexTK Express
is the preferred tool for the average home user; the Professional version adds enterprise-level features.
Neither version of FlexTK is another File Explorer substitute. Instead, they are programs which perform bulk analysis of files and directories, followed by operations on them. For example, suppose you have a directory with a mix of picture and movie files, in a variety of formats. You want the pictures moved to a separate directory, and the movies left behind, except for AVI formats. FlexTK lets you do this easily, and further lets you save this operation to be run at any time.
FlexTK operates by means of categories. The default breaks files down by type (Media, Document) and then by further and further sub-types. Other options available include Time and Size. This allows you, for example, to analyze a directory and see what percentage of the files are more than a year old, or how much of your disk space is consumed by a few bloated files.
Nothing much can be done in FlexTK until you have classified a directory, as it relies on classifications to do its job. Once this is done, you can use the Organize option to perform a variety of tasks, including copying, moving, and deleting files. You can easily find every movie file on a large disk or locate all duplicate files buried in folders. However, no work can be done until the directory or drive has been classified, and FlexTK does not alert the user that this is the case. It just happily processes nothing.
The Professional version does all of the above, and more. It can handle up to 10 terabytes of data and can store up to a million files per class. Further, it allows for advanced data migration--rather than just copying files, it preserves security settings and time/date stamps. Further, it can create a new, unique, file name if the file already exists, and will verify the copy after it is made.
Beyond Professional, there is Ultimate, which does not add features but which does increase the limits to 100 terabytes of data and ten million files per class.
