DriveScraper is a tool that allows you to scrape data from a newly added hard drive in the background. Works like a charm.

How it works

When you run the script, it keeps on scanning your computers ports in a loop of 1/2 seconds for newly added drives. When a new drive is detected it immediately copies data from it and pastes it where you've chosen in the instructions.

How to run

Prerequisites: Python2 or Python3(recommended) preinstalled, shutil library preinstalled.
On Linux:
Open Terminal and cd to where the script is located, type "python2 drivescraper.py" or "python3 drivescraper.py" depending on which python version you have, python3 is recommended.
On Windows:
Open cmd and cd to where the script is located, type "py drivescraper.py".

How to use

Run the script and follow the instructions.
