           Summary: Disks widget should also show total space
    Classification: Applications

SUMMARY
The new "Disks" section introduced in Plasma 6.4 would be a lot more useful if
it also showed the total space available (i.e. the partition size), rather than
only showing the used space. As an example, in the screenshot you can see that
the widget states "613.7 GiB", an information which is however made a lot less
useful by not displaying the total size of the partition (712.3 GiB) as the
user does not know how much of the partition is still free - which, I would
argue, is the main point of such a widget.
In other words, the information that is really important is how much free space
there is left; giving the user only the occupied space without giving them the
total one (so that they can calculate how much free space is still left) is not
useful.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Monitor

OBSERVED RESULT
The "Disks" widget only shows the occupied space.

EXPECTED RESULT
The "Disks" widget shows the occupied space and the total space.
