+The following example shows how to calculate disk space information from a
+`StatFs` object. The total, free, and available space in bytes can be
+calculated by multiplying the respective block counts by the block size
+(`bsize`).
+
+```mjs
+import { statfs } from 'node:fs/promises';
+
+const stats = await statfs('/');
+const totalSpace = stats.blocks * stats.bsize;
+const freeSpace = stats.bfree * stats.bsize;
+const availableSpace = stats.bavail * stats.bsize;
+
+console.log(`Total: ${totalSpace / (1024 ** 3)} GiB`);
+console.log(`Free: ${freeSpace / (1024 ** 3)} GiB`);
+console.log(`Available: ${availableSpace / (1024 ** 3)} GiB`);
