 How can I get the amount of hdd spaced used and how much is left on my
machine(multiple hdd's)

Try df - this shows usage/free by partition.

For example, this is the output of df on my laptop:

FilesystemSize  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda9 1.7G  1.1G  497M  70% /
/dev/hda2 2.0G  1.9G   57M  97% /mnt/DOS_hda2
/dev/hda5 2.0G  1.9G   50M  98% /mnt/hd
/dev/hda6  51M   34M   17M  66% /mnt/DOS_hda6
/dev/hda8  21M  1.7M   19M   8% /boot

For the usage of a particular directory tree, use du.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Ozz.

Check man df (for space) and man du (for files)
