Early warning
See the change, not just the current number.
DiskLoom tracks temperature, endurance, spare capacity, media errors, unsafe shutdowns, connection events, and backup readiness. Every warning explains the signal and rule that triggered it, while model-specific endurance references add useful context where available.

Five questions. Five clear answers.
Short, silent walkthroughs of the information DiskLoom puts first.
Am I protected?
Drive condition and Time Machine readiness in one view.
How healthy is my SSD?
Wear, temperature, errors, and evidence-based guidance.
What changed?
Temperature and endurance trends with event markers.
Does macOS expose SMART?
A verified result when telemetry is available, an honest unknown when it is not.
Is my backup ready?
Backup age, destination availability, encryption, and the next action.
Why DiskLoom
More than a row of SMART numbers.
Honest compatibility
Unknown is never dressed up as healthy. A USB bridge that hides SMART is reported as a limitation — not a failing disk.
Backup readiness
Drive health and your latest Time Machine backup in one view, so you know you're covered before something breaks.
Native Apple NVMe
Reads Apple's internal NVMe telemetry directly — temperature, wear, spare, and errors — with no drivers or Homebrew.
Lifetime intelligence
Combines reported SSD wear, write rate, power-on age, and bundled manufacturer endurance references. Replacement windows include their evidence and confidence.
Field experience
Population failure rates and typical service life add perspective. They are always labeled as reference context, never a prediction for your drive.
Read-only speed test
Measure sequential read throughput without creating test files or writing to the selected drive.
Private by design
Telemetry stays on your Mac. The internet is used only for license checks and updates, and exported reports are redacted.
Widget and weekly summary
Keep the worst current condition visible at a glance and receive a compact weekly health summary.
Zero setup
A universal diagnostics engine is bundled. Nothing to install and no Rosetta required on Apple silicon or Intel.
Reports that travel
Export a polished PDF health report, CSV history, or a privacy-redacted diagnostic report for support.
Honest compatibility
Unknown is not unhealthy.
When a USB enclosure or macOS transport does not expose SMART commands, DiskLoom reports that limitation separately from drive condition. It never invents a health result.

Questions
Good to know before you buy.
Will DiskLoom work with my external USB drive?
Many USB enclosures don't pass SMART data through to macOS. DiskLoom tries several access methods and, when the bridge blocks it, tells you clearly instead of guessing. Internal drives and many quality enclosures are fully supported.
Is it safe — can it damage my drive?
DiskLoom is strictly read-only. Even its optional speed test reads existing files and never creates test data, formats, or modifies drives, partitions, or firmware.
Is this a one-time price or a subscription?
The regular one-time price is €39. The first 100 launch licenses are €29. Either covers up to three Mac activations and every DiskLoom 1.x update, with no subscription.
Is there a trial or a refund?
Yes. A 14-day, full-featured trial is built into the app so you can confirm DiskLoom reads your drives before paying. Gumroad purchases also include a 30-day money-back guarantee.
What does DiskLoom require?
macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later, on Apple silicon or Intel. The diagnostics engine is bundled — no Homebrew or Rosetta needed.
What is SMART, exactly?
SMART is the health data your drive keeps about itself — temperature, wear, reallocated sectors, and errors. DiskLoom reads it, scores it, and explains what each signal means.
