    Seems when you are on a network and are trying to find the size of a network drive the reading you get is not the allocated space but usually the whole volume size. Does anyone know of a utility that can give you an accurate reading of drive size? Thanks for you help...Have a great day!!!

    Steve - I tried that and was given the total size of the physical drive rather than the amount used by the files in the segment I had mapped as a network drive.

    But if I did a select-all on the files/folders and right-clicked on that, properties did tell me how much space just for my files.
