I'm trying to port a little widget from Samurize;
in the list of DiskCore tags there is no corresponding variable for % Disk Time, which is the amount of time that the HDD was busy for read-write jobs (like the HDD hardware led, but with percentage).

Does anybody know if there is a method or a code that can be inserted to access that Performance Counter variable, and how (step by step)?

Thank you.

up (maybe some new member knows)

There is no (yet?) a default code for this D55.. Only the pc uptime. Now I don't know if this function can be "written" with a script code...

I think that the other DiskCore (and CpuCore and RamCore) tags are built-in with Javascript code, which extracts the values from the same Performance Counter.
If anybody knows which are these (for example, for %Percent, %Tenth), then maybe I could figure out the code for % Disk Time by myself, and introduce it manually in the widget.

Any new information?

Look for WMI performance counters/HDD Smart (google it, I'm feeling lazy). I remember, WMI had that info. Nearly all applicatons pull their data from WMI
