How to find the total space in a drive in Java

In this blog post, I will be explaining how you can find the total space available in a drive via Java. Consider the following code snippet:

package learnjava.io;

import java.io.File;

public class FindTotalSpaceDemo {

public static void main(String[] args) {
String fileName = "C:/";
File file = new File(fileName);
long totalSpace = file.getTotalSpace();

System.out.println("totalSpace = "+totalSpace/1000000000+ " GB");

}

}

There is a method called File.getTotalspace. This returns the number of bytes available on the partition that is encapsulated by the file object.
