Aphex's App of the Week - Week of 6/23/08

Info: JDiskReport enables you to understand how much space the files and directories consume on your disk drives, and it helps you find obsolete files and folders.
The tool analyses your disk drives and collects several statistics which you can view as overview charts and details tables. This is ad-free uncrippled no-charge binary multi-platform software that never expires.. -text taken from site

My Take: After deleting a ton of files today, I was curious where all the extra space on my 200gb HD went. I had used a program in the past for a visual representation of a directory's folder sizes, WhatSize, but unfortunately the program is no longer free. I ran across JDiskReport earlier today and have been very happy with it. It makes it quick and easy to see where all your space is eaten up (which brought about the other thread I made about the printers folder being a surprisingly large 3gb+). Seems to work really well, its quick even with large drives, and best of all, its free.



Sorry for not being able to get this out every week. Things should slow down around here sometime next month after which I hope to bring you these apps of the week on a regular basis.
