<title>Introduction</title>
<p><app>Disk Usage Analyzer</app> is a graphical application for analysing
storage device usage. It can be used to scan multiple local or remote storage
devices, including hard disks, SSDs, USB sticks, digital cameras and memory
cards. <app>Disk Usage Analyzer</app> can scan either the
<link xref="scan-file-system">whole file system</link>,
<link xref="scan-home">your <file>Home</file> directory</link>,
<link xref="scan-folder">a specified folder</link> or
<link xref="scan-remote">a remote directory</link>.</p>
<p>The results may be useful in deciding which folders can be
<link href="help:file-roller">archived</link>,
<link href="help:gnome-help/files-delete">deleted</link> or
<link href="help:gnome-help/files-copy">moved</link> to free up space. You
can also use the results to estimate how much space would be needed for a
<link href="help:gnome-help/backup-how">backup</link> of specific
folders.</p>
