gdu: Interactively show the disk usage of all mounted disks.
$ gdu --show-disks
try on your machine
The "gdu --show-disks" command is used to display disk usage statistics for the file system partitions or disks on a Linux system.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "gdu" stands for "GNOME Disk Usage Analyzer". It is a command-line tool that allows users to visually inspect disk usage in a directory tree on Linux systems.
- "--show-disks" is an option or flag that instructs the gdu command to display disk usage information for each individual disk or partition on the system, rather than just the overall usage for the specified directory.
When you run the "gdu --show-disks" command, it will analyze the various disks or partitions on your system and provide a summary of the total disk space used, available, and the percentage of usage for each disk or partition. This can be helpful in identifying which disks or partitions are consuming the most space and might require cleanup.
