Free space on local drives

A very good addition to the firmware would be an option to find out how mush free space you have on a locally connected drive.  This could be done with the linux DF command.  Something like:

DF -h -l /dev/sd*

would give a result:

Filesystem            Size    Used    Avail    Use%  Mounted on
/dev/sda1             459G   20G      416G   5%       /media/wd

Your post sounds more like an Idea or a Feature Request. The best place for this is in our Ideas Lab. This way someone from WD will be sure to see it. However, I would search first and make sure that there isn’t another idea similar to yours that you could add your post to and vote on.
