Thanks for the suggestion. I appreciate you responding to my post.

...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Out of curiosity, if you have time, could you try what happens with Directory size browser .
I don't have NAS drives I could play with so it would be interesting to know how this behaves...

I'm using Total Commander for that. Total Commander - home[^]
Simply use arrows to place the "Cursor" over the folder you want the size of and tap the spacebar to select. And it will tell you the size of the folder.
Or, go to Files -> Calculate Occupied Space (ctrl+L) and it will tell you a lot more, including actual space used considering cluster size, as well as space needed on target drive, also considering cluster size.

Use the Dir command? (Folders, file counts, files and sizes, sorted on size)
cd ..
dir /s /os > dir.txt
more < dir.txt

The final aim being to build some new kitchen cupboard doors - and hand routing that many mortices and tenons is a recipe for large piles of scrap wood. So I've repurposed one of my routers into the table.
So I bought a set of mortice and tenon bits and after a quick try to make my own tenon - Yay! It worked! - I tried the morticing bit and it worked well, though a slightly different size to my tenon, but I wasn't trying for a specific size this time.
So I loaded the tenoning bit ... and turned it on. Horrible noise, horrible smell, turn it off quick. Maybe it's too heavy - it's a physically large bit?
Nope. The bit has moved in the router and isn't running "true". It's caught the aluminium mounting plate which is were the noise and smell came from. But why?
Long story short the shank diameter is out of tolerance: about 0.2mm too narrow, and that's way outside what the collet can comfortably adapt to with a heavy bit. So when spinning at 20,000 rpm it goes out of balance and ... nasty and dangerous. The morticing one is pretty much spot on, so I guess that's Chinese manufacturing for you, again ... 
Oh well, it'll take longer to do them all "by hand" but at least I can do the mortices in one pass.
I'm still happy the table worked!

Coincidently I just finished making a kitchen island with 2 narrow pull outs with fronts that match the cabinets we installed a few months back.
I bought a set of Yonico 1/4" shank bits and they were junk, tore the oak wood I am using up. I adjusted the speed of the router I have on my table but it was of no use, the bits are just junk...Chinese!
So I bit the bullet and bought so good (expensive) bits and the faces turned out awesome.
We bought a bunch of 2-1/2" x 3/4" oak flooring and I ran it through a surface plane and ripped the tongue and groove off and used it for the Island top and book shelf counters. Turned out very nice and a heck of a lot cheaper than buying the oak from the lumber yard.

Can you wrap the shank in a piece of paper and get it into the collet? Average paper thickness is about 0.1mm per a quick googling. Probably difficult to do, if possible, without crinkling the paper. There are probably other reasons not to attempt this monkey-wrench technique... Or get some shim stock cut to size...

I don't see that as an option, at 20K RPM even the slightest deviation in the thickness of the paper could cause real problems.
I bought a cheap router without speed control and the bit worked loose and shot all the way across the shop. When I found it the shaft was badly bend. Needless to say I was lucky that the bit was thrown away from me. That router is now at the county dump!
I replaced it with this Milwaukee Router[^]

Yeah, there's a lot of inertia in those things when they are spinning, and sharp bits thrown in for good measure.
Not a good place for experimentation

Did you hear they closed the restaurant on the Moon? Great food, but no atmosphere.

The A/C didn't work either. It was either freezing or broiling.

But the moon is made of cheese. How can it smell if there is no atmosphere?

They also had to close the local amusement park. The management made its Apollo G's.

I was at Lowes today, and they played Taps over the PA system while I was there. They also had a small memorial in the parking lot.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
