In this blog post, I will be explaining how you can find the total space available in a drive via Java. Consider the following code snippet:

package learnjava.io;

import java.io.File;

public class FindTotalSpaceDemo {

    public static void main(String[] args) { 
        String fileName = "C:/"; 
        File file = new File(fileName); 
        long totalSpace = file.getTotalSpace();

        System.out.println("totalSpace = "+totalSpace 1000000000+ " GB");
    }
}

There is a method called File.getTotalspace. This returns the number of bytes available on the partition that is encapsulated by the file object.
