So what is it that is taking up all your hard drive space, anyway?

I was organizing some files, and decided to make a list. I've got 60gb of storage space w/ less than 2gb free. I'm gonna pick up another HD this weekend.

You've hit the big three...Star Trek, Futurama, and Smallville...looks like the only thing missing is some Family Guy...

I have a 200 gb HD and only 40 gigs free. My TV show folder is by far the biggest (high quality Star Trek Voyager, Enterprise, and others). The sad thing is i've also burnt off over 50 DVD+R's of stuff...

I had to burn all my Dark Angel season 1 & 2 eps onto CDR finally... and I had to get rid of all the eps of 24 (not really a re-watching kind of show). Alias season 1 & 2 eps are still on my HDD and I also have all 920+ episodes of Friends ever made.

Other than that, a few games that takes up gigs of space.

Shoot I've got so much stuff I dunno what to do with it.
I'll try to create a list.

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdb2 28G 5.9G 21G 23% /
/dev/hdb1 99M 9.3M 85M 10% /boot
none 125M 0 125M 0% /dev/shm
//stardisc/e$ 58G 55G 2.9G 96% /edrive
//stardisc/f$ 115G 76G 39G 66% /fdrive
//stardisc/c$ 29G 18G 12G 61% /cdrive
//stardisc/d$ 115G 58G 58G 50% /ddrive


This doesn't include the 2 120 gig and 1 60 gig hdd in my other PC. (Haven't setup file sharing on it)

Still got quite a bit of free space left, but the space that is being used is taken up by games, movies, and mp3s for the most part.

Just curious, is there a program out there that would list all the files on your system based on size? something similar to "du -s " in unix.
