Author Topic: Post a visualisation of all your drives  (Read 1796 times)

I found a program, wanting to find giant, useless files on my computer and deleting them to make space, but I found out, it also makes a cool little visualisation of all of the files on my drives.

Each square is a file.
The square's size, is it's file size.
The square's color, is it's file type.
This is showing all my 3 drives.
EDIT: The squares are sorted into drives, then into folders.

File types:

(there's hundreds more, but these are the biggest ones)

Because of this program, I deleted a 110GB folder I never even knew existed.

.avi files
better quality, but MUCH more space
every once in a while I re-render them into less quality but less size hoarding

uncompressed video files would be more accurate

still that's a bit extreme for a short video clip

I'm still trying to find out a way to make the videos not as big but still have great quality

i guess you're using fraps? try a program like OBS or somethin that gives you more control over the codec and bitrate and whatnot. you'll have to tinker with the settings to find the sweet spot but it'll cut down the size by a ton.

I'm using fraps, but I meant the quality that comes out when I render the final video, fraps is fine for my needs.

I've been using Windirstat for years now and I loving love the program.

you'd have so much extra space on your harddrive and they'll still be the same quality
