Disk Space Analyzer

Free hard disk space is very valuable, more-so since today's interconnected world allows users to quickly transfer huge documents over a short time span. Multiple disk maintenance applications can be employed to ensure users obtain the best results and Disk Space Analyzer is a very simple program that can quickly scan for available disk space.

The program is very intuitive and easy to deploy, as it requires only a swift installation and weights in at just under one megabyte. Running an analysis requires only that the user runs the application and selects the target drive; subfolders are also parsed and one can view informative pie chart graphs, based on the items taking up the most space.

Several sorting options are available for use, including standard “A-Z” and “0-9”, as well as their corresponding reverse methods and users have the ability to view disk space statistics in bytes, or in a number of incremental steps.

The utility is quite fast and most analyses should not take too long. A tree view placed to the left side of the main window allows users to scan individual drive branches, a great feature for targeting specific directories. The application features no menu items or unnecessary buttons and, as such, new users will find the lightweight utility very easy to use.

In conclusion, Disk Space Analyzer is a basic hard disk usage tool that can be valuable for anyone who wants a quick method of locating the largest local folders or files. The program runs scans fairly fast and will generate simple but informative pie charts based on the distribution of the local items.
