Find out Free disk space using SQL query

This code demonstrates use of master.sys.xp_fixeddrives. This returns all the drives available in the server and its free space in MB

Exec master.sys.xp_fixeddrives



RESULT

Drive MB Free
***** *******
C 10002
D 20002
F 57481


This will be very useful before large data load operation. We can check the disk space before starting the any large data load processes
