While reading through this month's "Windows IT Pro" magazine(www.windowsitpro.com/), I spotted this WinDirStat (http://windirstat.info/) listed in the free utilities section. This utility will scan a drive and all its directory structures, then graphically show you where all the space on it is being used. It shows you the breakdown per directory tree and what percentage of space is used by each filetype on the drive. You can click on any of the 'boxes' in the visualization it creates at the bottom of the application to zoom right down to the location on the drive it represents.Needless to say this is now going to be a standard tool to be installed on my file servers.

Blog - Raison d"être
I started this website because I wanted to blog deliberatly (J/K, sorry Thoreau). As an IT admin, a lot of my time is spent looking for strange and seemingly uncommon solutions to problems. This search often takes me all over the web and as I'm often told, well up my posterior to pull out solutions to problems. So this blog is my way of giving back to the community and if I save just one admin an extra Tums or Rolaids then I'm good with that.
Thanks for dropping by.
