So details of the disk please and a screen shot from Disk Admin?<br />
<br />
The best two tools for Visualising where your storage space is being consumed are TreeSize ( <a href="https://www.jam-software.com/freeware/" rel="ugc">https://www.jam-software.com/freeware/</a>&nbsp;) and WinDirStat ( <a href="https://windirstat.net/" rel="ugc">https://windirstat.net/</a>&nbsp;)<br />
<br />
I have used both, they both do the job, but i prefer WinDirStat's UI

My hard drive states it is full last month it was not even close. &nbsp;I have transfer folders and files to external drive and very little space removed. &nbsp;I had this problem before and I think it had something to do with Sage 50. &nbsp;My drive looked full and then everything was back to normal. &nbsp;Any suggestions?<br />

Hard Drive Full

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Storage

Storage devices include any device used for storing and retrieving digital information. Hard disk drives (HDDs) use one or more rigid ("hard") rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material. Data is accessed in a random-access manner, meaning that individual blocks of data can be stored or retrieved in any order and not only sequentially. The primary competing technology for secondary storage is flash memory in the form of solid-state drives (SSDs), but HDDs remain the dominant medium for secondary storage due to advantages in price per bit and per-device recording capacity. CD-RW (Compact Disc-ReWritable) is a digital optical disc storage format that allows information to be stored outside the mechanical HDD.
