DiskSizes 2.1 is a software that provides insight into a computer's drives or disks by displaying information such as drive type, cluster size, used and free space, total space, and percentages. This summary emphasizes the software's functionality and key features in a concise manner.
DiskSizes 2.1 recognizes that files are stored in an integral number of clusters (or allocation units) and offers comprehensive information about disk sizes based on powers of 1000 or 1024. If 1000 is selected, you can expect a megabyte to be a million bytes, a gigabyte to be a billion bytes, and a terabyte to be a trillion bytes. With this feature, you can gain insights into how much space is occupied by files.
The software also enables you to measure a folder's disk use and display the number of subfolders, number of files, sum of the file sizes, and total disk use. With the ability to include or exclude hidden and system files, DiskSizes 2.1 provides you with better control over your disk usage. The total disk use is also displayed relative to the cluster size on any of your computer's drives that has a disk in it. Alternatively, it may be relative to a selected size, or all of the listed sizes.
In the last case, this information may be exported to a text file and is useful for determining the range of disk use for a program or other file set. This information may also be useful when you are planning to store or copy many files. DiskSizes 2.1 requires Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 or later and does not contain any adware or spyware. At just $4.99 for a one-time fee, it is reasonably priced and offers an exceptional value proposition.
