In a previous tip on Monitor Your SQL Server Virtual Log Files with Policy Based Management, we have seen how we can use Policy Based Management to monitor the number of virtual log files (VLFs) in our SQL Server databases.

PowerShell script to find files that are consuming the most disk space
As you know, SQL Server databases and backup files can take up a lot of disk space.

In this article I will show you a PowerShell script that you can use to find large files on your disks.
