The Disk Report is helpful in quickly classifying machines based on the amount of space allocated to each disk. This report displays the total amount of partitioned space on each physical hard drive. You can get an overall view to analyze and determine which disks have space that is not allocated and can potentially be reallocated to another disk.
You can use this report in conjunction with the Volume Report to analyze the amount of allocated space compared to the amount of used space.
For example, if this report shows that a particular disk has a low amount of allocated space, you should then check the Volume Report to compare the allocated space to the amount of space being used. If the allocated space is low, but the used space is high, you should investigate the reason for this non-allocated space and if possible, create a new volume to better utilize your available space.
Always look for patterns in behavior to isolate potential problem disks. It is important to analyze the results from all fields of this report when attempting to determine problem nodes.
