Stumbled across this pice of software “Duplicate Cleaner“, a utility to remove duplicate files on you harddisk – a growing problem with the harddisk sizes these days, I guess I alone havearound 4TB disk storage and I would be VERY surprised if there was not a duplicate file or two. The software also supports hardlinks which sounds interesting.
I will be testing this software in the near future.

Have you ever tried to burn your collection of digital photos or mp3 files to DVD? Sure you have, how did you accomplish it? By sorting files into groups of 4.6gb and burning one dvd at the time? Most people do it this way, you could also use winrar or other and create compressed files with a size of 4.6gb (one per dvd) – however that is not optimal if you later wish to extract just that ONE file you deleted by accident or if one DVD gets corrupted…

UPDATE; A related product Dirsplit has come to my attention, this appear to be more related to sorting than size, but may still be interesting to you; http://code.google.com/p/dirsplit/
