Next up in the tool section, is Spacemonger, a fantastic Free tool that makes analyzing drive space a breeze. The developer of Spacemonger had the insight to know we are all visual creatures and he created this tool that would visually map a drive so as to proportion the directory size to the physical drive size. The visual representation allows the user to view at-a-glance what files/directories on a drive are consuming the most space. The visual representation is great for today’s large drives and the application is a self-contained .exe, so you can take it anywhere.

 

The next time you find yourself running out of space on a drive, use Spacemonger to map out where you can make some cutbacks! Here are a few screenshots:
