Hello

How can I get the Free Space of a Storage Card in .NET?

I tried to call GetDiskFreeSpaceEx with "\Storage Card" as path, but
sometimes it is returning a negative value?!

Thanks

Rampf

Are you sure it's a negative number? Maybe you're just interpreting it as a
signed value, when it's really unsigned. The PULARGE_INTEGER values should
be 'ref unsigned long' in C#...

Hi,

A negative value means that the Storage Card had no space left and started
'borrowing' from device RAM. Just kidding, see this link, especially the
part about not converting to a 32-bit value.
