Meaningful Mapping of Entire Drives

Post by SkyFrontier »

Hello, people.

I'd like your cooperation to find a solution for the following problem:
-how to automatically (this may sound silly, but it's not) report meaningful content out of entire (mainly external) hard drives, leaving out (performance reasons, too) hundreds, thousands of irrelevant system files, small GIFs\generic .htm(l) support files, similar "clipboard*.png" XY-sourced captures that can be sampled from the initial and the last, say, 10 made files?

Years back I developed some variations ranging from random samples to entire ghost-imaging, but nothing will solve this issue properly. Hard-coding limits easily provide anomalous results. Level-based solutions are definitely unsafe. Running a 'manually-driven' script that stores partial reports out of user chosen folders, recursing 1 level down\max is certainly a better shot - hardly a comfortable, realistic scenario when it comes to serious reports that must be done by the dozens.

Help. :roll:
