dirname
Nice, but please be aware of the prefixes.
SI specifies a lower case 'k' as 1'000 prefix.
It doesn't make sense to use an upper case 'K' as binary prefix,
while the decimal Mega (M and following) prefixes in SI are uppercase.
Furthermore, there are REAL binary prefixes since a few years.
Do it the (newest and recommended) "IEC" way:
KB's are calculated decimal; power of 10 (1000 bytes each)
KiB's are calculated binary; power of 2 (1024 bytes each).
The same goes for MB, MiB and so on...

disk_free_space
(PHP 4 >= 4.1.0, PHP 5)
disk_free_space — Restituisce lo spazio disponibile nella directory
Descrizione
float disk_free_space
( string
$directory
)Data una stringa contenente una directory, questa funzione restituirà il numero di byte disponibili nel corrispondente filesystem o nella partizione corrispondente.
Example #1 Esempio disk_free_space()
<?php
// $df contiene il numero di byte disponibili in "/"
$df = disk_free_space("/");
// Con Windows:
disk_free_space("C:");
disk_free_space("D:");
?>
Nota: Questa funzione non opererà su file remoti perché il file che deve essere esaminato deve essere accessibile attraverso il filesysmte del server.

A cleaner and more efficient way of making human readable file sizes:
<?php
function decodeSize( $bytes )
{
$types = array( 'B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB' );
for( $i = 0; $bytes >= 1024 && $i < ( count( $types ) -1 ); $bytes /= 1024, $i++ );
return( round( $bytes, 2 ) . " " . $types[$i] );
}
?>

Another easy way to convert bytes to human readable sizes would be this:
<?php
function HumanSize($Bytes)
{
$Type=array("", "kilo", "mega", "giga", "tera", "peta", "exa", "zetta", "yotta");
$Index=0;
while($Bytes>=1024)
{
$Bytes/=1024;
$Index++;
}
return("".$Bytes." ".$Type[$Index]."bytes");
}
?>
It simply takes the $Bytes and divides it by 1024 bytes untill it's no longer over or equal to 1024, meanwhile it increases the $Index to allocate which suffix belongs to the return (adding 'bytes' to the end to save some space).
You can easily modify it so it's shorter, but I made it so it's more clearer.

Transformation is possible WITHOUT using loops:
<?php
$bytes = disk_free_space(".");
$si_prefix = array( 'B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'EB', 'ZB', 'YB' );
$base = 1024;
$class = min((int)log($bytes , $base) , count($si_prefix) - 1);
echo $bytes . '<br />';
echo sprintf('%1.2f' , $bytes / pow($base,$class)) . ' ' . $si_prefix[$class] . '<br />';
?>

List all drives, free space, total space and percentage free.
<?
for ($i = 67; $i <= 90; $i++)
{
$drive = chr($i);
if (is_dir($drive.':'))
{
$freespace = disk_free_space($drive.':');
$total_space = disk_total_space($drive.':');
$percentage_free = $freespace ? round($freespace / $total_space, 2) * 100 : 0;
echo $drive.': '.to_readble_size($freespace).' / '.to_readble_size($total_space).' ['.$percentage_free.'%]<br />';
}
}
function to_readble_size($size)
{
switch (true)
{
case ($size > 1000000000000):
$size /= 1000000000000;
$suffix = 'TB';
break;
case ($size > 1000000000):
$size /= 1000000000;
$suffix = 'GB';
break;
case ($size > 1000000):
$size /= 1000000;
$suffix = 'MB';
break;
case ($size > 1000):
$size /= 1000;
$suffix = 'KB';
break;
default:
$suffix = 'B';
}
return round($size, 2).$suffix;
}
?>

Note that you should not rely on this function on linux BTRFS filesystems.read the FAQ for more info

and also you can know the used space , in this
example :
<?
function disk_used_space($drive)
{
return disk_total_space("$drive:") - disk_free_space("$drive:");
}
echo disk_used_space('C');
?>

This the right function is:
function formatSize($size){
switch (true){
case ($size > 1099511627776):
$size /= 1099511627776;
$suffix = 'TB';
break;
case ($size > 1073741824):
$size /= 1073741824;
$suffix = 'GB';
break;
case ($size > 1048576):
$size /= 1048576;
$suffix = 'MB';
break;
case ($size > 1024):
$size /= 1024;
$suffix = 'KB';
break;
default:
$suffix = 'B';
}
return round($size, 2).$suffix;
}
