ORGANIZE YOUR DRIVES BY FREE SPACE

If you have a number of drives where you store files, you'll probably want to know at some point which drives have the most free space. Rather than right-clicking each one to look under Properties and make a mental note of the numbers, use the follow steps to get a quick ordering of drives by free space.

  1. Open My Computer.
  2. Right-click on a blank space within the My Computer window.
  3. Select Arrange Icons.
  4. Select By Free Space.


Another way to achieve the same result is to use the Details view within My Computer and click the Free Space column header to order the drives. Clicking the column header again will, of course, reverse the sort order. It's useful to remember that mapped network drives are included in the list, as well.
