# Spaced: daemon for querying disk usage data
spaced surfaces disk usage information via a D-Bus interface.
Currently, spaced supports the following interfaces:
* Method GetTotalDiskSpace: Gets the total disk space available for usage on
the device for a given path (including currently used space).
* Method GetFreeDiskSpace: Gets the available free space for use on the device
for a given path.
Those D-Bus methods must be preferred over local library calls / syscalls such
as `base::SysInfo::AmountOfFreeDiskSpace` because spaced's takes the underlying
thinpool into account, for example.
