This link is courtesy of Kevin Devin from the In The Trenches Podcast. Kevin sent this to me when I released the Ultimate Portable USB utilities. Visit [here] to learn how to build this CD.

Here is a link to the original AIDA32 system information utility. This program is no longer supported. The new program Everest, has a FREE home version that will not work if you are connected to a network domain. I still use AIDA32. Great utility that also works standalone on a USB stick.

This utility accounts for the girth of your burgeoning data, helping you figure out where it could use a nip or a tuck. Open the program from a context menu of a folder or drive to learn the size of the folder and all its subfolders. You can watch the results appear before your eyes. The wasted space can be written up in a printable report, giving you some idea of a pattern for the necessary alterations. This version is FREE. I have been using the Pro version for years tracking wasted space on my hard drive. Download it [here]
