Ever wanted to find out where MSN stores its contact database? Or Firefox saves your Cookies? Then Drivewatcher is the right tool for you!
It analyzes every change that’s made to any of your hard disk drives. All partitions are shown as tabs, and every tab shows the time, the file path and the operation done on the particular file.
Even if you don’t want to find out what an application is doing, you can just try it to see how many file operations are done by system processes you’ve never heard of. Just give it a try!
Please comment if you like it or wish more features!

how do you detect all this I/O’s? Can you see what change is being made?

i detect them using a pre-made class in .net framework, you can set a class to spy on a specified directory, i just set it to the root.
see what change is being made is not possible i think, i would have to open all the files before and after and compare them, but thats not possible since your memory is restricted… so no, i think you cant do that.
