3D disk usage viewers for Linux

You don’t need a Ph.D. in scientific visualization to have some fun with three-dimensional data. Whether you’re searching for an unused nook in a cramped disk partition, or trying to find the bloated temp/ folder that’s crashing your system, sometimes the flat folder view of a traditional GUI file browser is little help. Luckily, Linux offers a variety of 3-D filesystem that can make your disk usage statistics come alive.

If you are bored of du, or don’t feel that you look geeky enough while at your Linux PC, then here are a few 3D programs that analyze your usage and show you straight out what’s hogging your hard drive.
