file.volumeSize

Syntax file.volumeSize (path)
Params path is the name of the volume whose total capacity you wish to determine.
Action Determines the total capacity of the designated volume.
Returns The total capacity of the volume in bytes.
Examples file.volumeSize ("C:\\")
2146467840

file.volumeSize ("System:") // an 80 megabyte hard disk
80626176

file.volumeSize ("Dialog:") /1024 // an 800K floppy
785 // in Kilobytes because of division by 1024

This script displays the percentage of a volume that is available for storage:
f = "System:";

capacity = single (file.volumeSize (f));

freespace = single (file.freeSpaceOnVolume (f));

pctFree = ( (freespace / capacity) * 100);

return (pctFree + "%")

34.9773%
Errors Attempting to find out the total capacity of a non-existent volume results in an error message.
Notes The File System maintains this number, so no traversal of the directory is necessary. Therefore, this verb is fast.

This verb will not return the correct result if the size of the volume is larger than 2 Gigabytes. If you are running Frontier 6.1 or later, you should use file.volumeSizeDouble instead which will work with volume sizes of up to 4 Terabytes.
