I have many external hard drives that I use for different video projects (over 10), and I often have a hard time keeping track of what each hard drive contains at any particular moment. Does anyone know of an OS X application that will automatically keep a local 'catalog' of each drive when it's mounted? This way I know what drive to go for when I need some specific video clips.

Thanks for any help!

Locator can do this. It's also a great tool to quickly search your hard drive for files. You can find it by doing a search for 'Locator' on VersionTracker.
