Disk Space Monitor

Disk Space Monitor is a small software application developed specifically for helping you check out details about the total and free space for any drives with the aid of a pie chart.

This is a portable program that comes with several benefits to your computer. You may run it by simply opening the executable file (there’s no setup included in the process) and copy it on any USB flash drive or other portable devices so you can have it with you all the time.

It does not leave traces in your Windows registry and store other configuration files so you can get rid of it by deleting the package that you have grabbed from the Internet. You may run without administrative privileges and open it directly from the storage device.

Disk Space Monitor can be found sitting quietly in the system tray without disturbing your activity and interfering with your work. You can access the program’s configuration parameters via the tray icon. A ‘Readme’ file is included in the package and includes succinct descriptions about the utility’s monitoring capabilities.

The application offers you the possibility to get information about the free and total space of your drives by checking the pie chart that is displayed in the system tray. If you hover your mouse cursor over it, you get the exact values of the total and free space data.

What’s more, you can make Disk Space Monitor reveal the pie chart in a larger panel, view total and free space, as well as keep this particular pane on top of other windows.

When it comes to configuration settings, you are allowed to automatically update the tray icon at a certain time interval, set the color used for displaying the total and free space, and select the drives that are included in the monitoring process.

You can refresh the list with drives with a single click. It runs low on memory resources so the overall performance of the system is not affected.

The bottom line is that Disk Space Monitor provides a straightforward software solution for helping you monitor disk space usage, and is suitable especially for less experienced users.
