Display actual total Disk Usage (not just what is remaining)
-
I wasn't entirely sure what: "54.62 GB of 150.19 GB available" meant, i.e. whether it means I'm using 54.62GB, or that I've got 52.62GB left?
To find out I just added up all the apps that are using at least a GB and it comes to 70.73GB - and so it must mean I've got 52.62GB of space remaining - great, that is what I thought it probably meant (even though it's not especially clear)
I'd also like to see the total amount of disk space used too (not just how much is left).
Obviously I can work this out (in my case 150.19GB - 54.62GB = 95.57GB) but it'd be nice if this figure was actually displayed (would help me to work out roughly how large my backup disks need to be for various retention policies).
Could we get this into the next version?
Thanks!

@jdaviescoates Having three items like so would be nice:
Capacity: xxxxxGB
Used: xxxxxGB
Remaining: xxxxxGB -
I'd still really like this small addition to the System Info page.
You shouldn't have to do sums in order to work out how much disk space is being used. It should just be displayed.
This bugged me again today.
