in reply to Analyse file system - files, sizes, contents, access, etc.
I used a perl script to collect file extensions, and metadata, and stored that in an access database.
SQL queries could be run to give summaries like - what percent of disk was eaten by mp3 and video files, Photos, etc. Also - which user was hogging disk , with a summary of top 20 users, and what volumes of "non-corporate" stuff they had.
An interesting side-effect was the discovery of a treasure-trove of ... well .. lets call it unsavory material.
I imagine there are probably many such, far more professionally written packages available for things like this, but I'm willing to try to dig up the old code, on request.
My goal ... to kill off the slow brain cells that are holding me back from synergizing my knowledge of vertically integrated mobile platforms in local cloud-based content management system datafication.
