    Default Hard Drive usage breakdown utility

    Does anyone know if there is a program that displays what folders on various drives take up how much space? I'd like a way to see how big each folder is at various levels on my C drive. Something like a bar graph that would show all of the folders on my C drive and how big each folder is, then I could open one of these folders and see how big folders under it are, etc...

    there's a couple different ones.

    I THINK the one I like is WinDirStat - Windows Directory Statistics

    it has pacmen and a nice graphical colored block display

    First thing that came to my mind was KDE (on linux), since the file explorer in there's had that ability as far as I can remember Windirstat seems good though, plus it was inspired by KDE anyway

    JDisk Report is another good one. Once upon a time I'd commonly use it to see what the Top 100 largest files on my computer were. Though what you're looking for is pretty simple, so you probably don't need many options. :P
