Working from the command line has some disadvantages, one of those is that you don't have a constant graphical reminder of physical and available disk space. To check this we can use the command df which stands for disk filesystem

From the command line:
df -h — (the -h means human readable format, so instead values being in bytes, they are displayed at MB or GB etc)

      $ df -h
