SpaceSniffer, Saleen File Pro, Disk Savvy, Better Directory Analyzer, and Disk Space Fan are similar freeware disk space analysis tools which may interest you.
Great, yesterday I was searching for an analyser like this. I have Treesize pro, a great tool, and with that I managed to reduce the amount of files from 140.000 to 36,000.
You may think it is impossible, but it was possible :-)
What I wanted was to reduce the amount of files because I now have a new and better NAS.
And I never use the software they comes with it.
As you already know to move/copy one file that take up 4MB is faster than 1000 that take up the same space and so on.
So I first reduced the amount of files by remove exact duplicates that was quite a lot.
Then I started to look at my storage folders that’s divided into years.
Until yesterday I have always just put the files into the monthly folders, and among them are a lit og saved home pages with full content, it could be hundreds of files (I am both programmer, technician and homepage developer and more, and have been a IT Professional for 36 years) so my history files are quite a lot, so the history files was cleaned up, unnecessary projects was deleted, others (older) was compressed to one large file for every project, and that reduced the amount of files in a big way.
So yes “I did it” i managed to increase free space and at the same time reduce the amount of files form 140.000 to 36.000
But it would have been quite a lot easier if I had Xinorbis together with Treesize, Winzip and FreeFileSync
My 3 favourite tools.
Now I will check with Xinorbis.
Thanks :-)

I used Windirstat so far, and didn`t find its best feature, its graphical disk image, no were else.
When I want to see my disk use, I never found anything better yet. https://windirstat.info
Regarding Windirstat`s special feature:
It shows the drive contents in a graphical image that has coloured squares.
Each square is a file. The size of the square represents the size of the file. The colour the type of file.
Above the image, you have the directory structure.
As soon as you select a directory, you will see the squares, related to the files in that directory selected as well.
You can click on a square in the image, and you will get the data on the specific file related to that square.
As easy as pie to find the biggest space-hogs this way.
thanks because i just got a blue screen in my windows 7 so i wanted an hard disk analyser
Thank you MohKraats for mentioning windirstart, it is a good utiltiy too!
