I want to tell you about this fantastic freeware tool I just discovered called SpaceMonger.

http://www.werkema.com/software/spacemonger.html

You can run it against your C drive or a network drive, and it will graphically show you which folders contain the most data. You can use it to find out where the majority of your space is going to.



I used it here at work, and here is what I found. We have a staff of 400 people. This tool told me that one of our people was using up 10% of our network space! This tool provided me with some amazing insight into who is being a "disk space monger!"

I highly recommend it.

No, but I wish I did! This kind of tool is perfect for this kind of thing. Every IT shop could use something like this.
