(I apologize in advance if this question is not appropriate for this list.)

I'm writing a small app to graph the speed of an attached hard disk under various circumstances. My thoughts for the interface are at http://homepage.mac.com/kmmx/UI.png - where the left custom view will be my graph, and the right control (not sure if a table appropriate) will contain a list of volumes.

On most Mac OS X applications, the volume list would be on the left (a NSTableView is a good choice).


My question is: what is the proper method for the user to specify "measure this disk and append to the current graph"? I've thought of double clicking, or drag and drop. Both cases feel a little strange to me so I'm wondering what others think.

Does it require a lot of CPU usage? Because just selecting the volume could start the operation.
