Get an overview of your network’s disk space and memory status
There’s nothing more frustrating than when a text you’ve been working on for hours suddenly disappears, or when an installation you’ve been waiting patiently to complete is abruptly aborted. Disk space must be available for automatic updates, the saving of user data, and the input of data into CRM or ERP software forms: every network contains a number of processes which write data onto the hard disk. In order to avoid data losses, there must always be sufficient disk space.
PRTG monitoring runs attentively in the background, regulates available hard disk space, and provides prompt alerts in the event of an impending deficiency. Administrators can therefore take appropriate measures to avoid problems related to a lack of hard disk space. This is the only way to ensure the smooth functioning of business processes.
Simply set the desired threshold value for alerts and turn your attention to other tasks. Administrators are alerted as soon as the memory level falls below this value, and can free up disk space by deleting data which is no longer necessary or scaling existing space by way of capacity expansions.
Thanks to PRTG, the entire staff can work with peace of mind.
7 good reasons to choose PRTG as your hard disk checking tool
Avoid frustration
Employees can be sure there is sufficient memory whenever they save their data. Work processes are uninterrupted. Hours of work are saved. And employees are spared frustration.
Secure your data
Data is becoming more and more valuable, and the loss of precious information (e.g. customer data) can be extremely costly. With PRTG, data losses due to failed save attempts are avoided.
Stay up-to-date on free disk space
No need to verify the level of memory yourself. PRTG monitors this for you and promptly lets you know when space runs low.
Be quick to act
You will be notified promptly if the amount of available disk space is approaching its limit and if hardware must be scaled.
Automated processes
Existing hard disks, statuses, and disk space are automatically recognized during setup. The administrator has nothing more to do.
Health check ups
Thanks to health check-ups, server failure and data loss can be prevented. And hard disks can be replaced on time.
Oversee network systems
Even network file systems get checked.

PRTG gathers this
data for you
iWhat is a sensor?
In PRTG, “Sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, e.g. the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, the free space of a disk drive. On average you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.

How does checking your disk space with PRTG work?
PRTG Network Monitor tracks disk space development across the entire network and maintains an overview of the storage levels of Unix, Linux, and Windows systems. PRTG monitors physical and logical drives, web servers, file servers, applications, and other servers. Furthermore, the Share Disk Free Sensor monitors the amount of free disk space on SMB network file systems. PRTG also supports encryption via the Secure Shell network protocol.
The utilization of the disk space of physical and logical drives in Windows systems is monitored with WMI. PRTG logs available disk space, records file modifications, and checks if certain files exist. In addition, PRTG boasts sensors which test the "health” of the hard disk and promptly warn of any possible errors. The Share Disk Free Sensor uses SNMP and SSH to monitor available space on the hard disks of Linux/Unix systems.
