Hard drive meter

Knowing how much space you have left on the hard drive can be quite useful, especially when you’re downloading files or want to install a game, for example. Hard drive meter is a nice tool that was designed to display this type of information.

The program has a simple interface that should be easy to figure out.

The app installs as a widget and can be placed anywhere on the screen. The frame isn’t too large, so it shouldn’t bother you too much.

Depending on how many disk partitions you have on the computer, the app lets you view data for each of them. They can be found in the context menu and you are only required to click on either of them to view the data.

The app displays the partition size, as well as that of the entire disk. Also, you may view the occupation rate in percentages, as well as the total amount of free space. The partition’s label can be viewed as well.

As all similar tools, Hard drive meter can be set to always be on top of other apps, which makes it easier to view at all times. It can also ignore mouse movements and accidental dragging.

The bottom line is that Hard drive meter is a nice program that can come in handy. Inexperienced users should find it easy to handle, thanks to the intuitive layout and its overall simplicity.
