If you’re the sort of person who starts to feel like your new PC with the 250GB hard drive is running out of space about two days after you bring it home from the store, hard disk space analyzers can be your best friend. While we’re big fans of WinDirStat for finding the largest files and folders on a disk, Xinorbis packs a few features that WinDirStat lacks.

For example, not only does Xinorbis analyze all of the files on your hard drive, but it will actually sort them into categories like music/sound, movies, programs, graphics, and system files. You can view the results in a pie or bar chart. And you can customize Xinorbis to show files by frequency or size. You can also compare two different hard drives.

Depending on your hard drive size and how many files you’ve got, it can take a while to run Xinorbis, and it may seem to be unresponsive, but don’t give up hope. Odds are it’s still working. For ease of use, we still like WinDirStat, but Xinorbis looks like a great tool to have for detailed disk space analysis.
