About this widget
Drives shows one row per fixed drive: an icon, the volume label and letter, a capacity bar, and the exact used and total sizes. Rows grow with the widget, so a tall tile reads from across the room and a compact one stays tidy. The numbers come from the host's vitals stream and refresh about every 30 seconds, so the widget costs nothing to keep on screen.
The bar comes in two styles, a solid meter or discrete segments, and follows the theme accent or a custom color through the accent setting. Each drive icon carries a small status light in the same color. Both switch to warning colors as a drive fills up (75 and 90 percent). A setting flips the text between used space and free space, the icons can be turned off, and the usual panel style options cover solid, transparent or image backgrounds.
