Hard Drive Space..??

[eeprom777]

I've done searches thru the database and I cant seem to fine any info on how to find out how much space I have left on my internal hard drive... Is the function built in to the PCH? Thank you for any help... dont really want to remove it from PCH and hook it up to external casing to check....

In the torrent view, the free space is indicated there.

Well, you can actually get this information - a simple version with a little configuration and more extensive information with a little bit more work...

The simple version involves adding a row to your hosts file (Windows) or similar if you're using Linux/MacOS/.... What you need is a DNS entry for your PCH. The name which you need to refer your box. The name you need to add is "localhost.drives". If we're talking Windows, then:

- Open C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in Notepad
- Add a row at the end of the file:

Code:

192.168.0.xx localhost.drives

(change 192.168.0.xx to the IP-number of your PCH)
- Go to http://localhost.drives:8883/ in your webbrowser

That should give you some, unformatted, more or less raw information about your connected drives. Not that pretty but the information is there.

Also, the longer version...

You can get this information, and about any information you want, by creating a script on your harddisk and then call this script from your browser, same as above but a custom script that gets the information that you really need/want (mounts, disk usage, memory, ...).

When you are in the list of media sources, you can press 'Info' when HARD_DISK is highlitet, it tells you free space and tatal size.
