    There is no download… website only says "coming soon"

    Like so many of the other WHS 2011 add-ins. You either have to register with the company/developer or their application/add-in is not ready yet to be downloaded.

    I just spent 10 minutes trying to download. COME ON “WEGOTSERVED” make sure things are accurate and current when you post information to your site!

    This is a shame because Maximum PC just did a bit article on some of the WHS 2011 add-ins.

    Download link is available. Add-in looks promising, however it is currently mis-reporting usage on a bare system in it's pie chart (detailed breakdown is accurate)

    • WHSIreland

      it also seems to be causing high cpu usage.

  • perikifi

    It shows my Seagate 1.5TB backup drive as having 17179869184 GB used space. Also, when a drive fills up, updates to the graphs happen very very slowly, hours after drive usage has changed.
