This verb should work with volumes up to 4 Terabytes large, sepcifically it returns the correct result for volumes larger than 2 Gigabyte where file.bytesOnVolume doesn't. The number of bytes in a volume can be computed quickly because the File system maintains the information. This verb is new in Frontier 6.1. It is implemented as a script.
