It can assess local drives, remote network shares and virtual devices such as RAM disks and encrypted file containers.
TreeSize is a disk space analyzer for Windows with customizable file search and exporting and reporting options. It provides visualizations including pie, bar and Treemap charts, detailed folder breakdowns and a Windows Explorer-like interface to identify large files and space consumption. It offers free and paid versions.
