Converting the FileSystemObject's TotalSize Property

  • Article

Definition: Returns the total size of a drive or network share.

TotalSize

Retrieve an object reference to the .NET Framework object DriveInfo for the drive you want to work with. You can then use the DriveInfo TotalSize property to retrieve the total size of the drive.

$d = New-Object -typename System.IO.DriveInfo -argumentlist "C:"
$d.TotalSize

This does not work with network shares (i.e., \\atl-fs-01\scripts), it works only with mapped drives letters.
