Disk Space Monitor

Disk Space Monitor is a lightweight software application whose purpose is to help you automatically monitor the free space on your computer and activate notifications in case it drops below a certain value. It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there.

Clean looks

The tool reveals a straightforward design that embeds all configuration settings into a single panel. There’s no support for a help manual but you can manage to tweak the dedicated parameters on your own because they look easy to decode.
The program is unobtrusive so it does not disturb you while working. It runs quietly in the system tray and automatically keeps an eye on the free space.

Configuration parameters

Disk Space Monitor gives you the possibility to select the disk that you want to monitor, set up the warning level when notifications are activated, run a custom command, as well as check for free space at a preset time interval (in seconds).
What’s more, the application is able to send emails to a custom address or show onscreen warnings. You are allowed to specify the target email address and server, start or stop the monitoring process, automatically run the utility at Windows startup and open it minimized, as well as save the current settings.
In addition, if you hover your mouse cursor over the program’s icon from the system tray, Disk Space Monitor reveals information about the free, high, and low space.

Final observations

To sum things up, Disk Space Monitor comes packed with basic features for warning you when you run out of free space, and can be configured by rookies and professionals alike.
