File Sizes Report

The File Sizes report shows the distribution of files by size (or allocated size, e.g. "size on disk"). This can help you make informed decisions about how to manage your storage resources. For example, it helps you identify areas where disk space is being wasted by the presence of large numbers of small files, enabling more efficient storage configuration and optimization.
