I have been using this app for many years now. It is very useful for getting an overview of storage used in a folder or drive, to see exactly what is taking up the most disk space. It does this by offering a treemap visualisation.

As you can see above, it is incredibly fast to scan folders, and then you can see at a glance what is taking up most space, and contents of the folders. All my recently added requests go to 2x1TB SSDs, so I do need to keep them in check and actively monitor storage, before backing up to Cloud.

Drilling in to my recently added Movies directory, I can see at a glance the larger files for higher quality rips. A generic 720p encode would be in the 4-5GB size range whilst a 1080p can be anything from 7-8GB plus in size.
