Besides importing documents, DEVONthink can also index files. When indexing files, DEVONthink reads the contents of the file and stores it for internal reference, but leaves the files in place in the Finder. Use indexing for easily accessing information stored on removable volumes, creating a library of all important documents regardless where they are physically stored, or integrating files stored elsewhere with your documents in DEVONthink.
