Input: A computer name on the internal network
Out: Disk space total and remaining on all drives.
 
I doubt there's any solution directly integrated into .NET to support this
for network drives, thought it might be possible if the drive itself is
mapped locally on the computer.

Failing that, your best bet is probably to investigate WMI and try to run a
remote WMI query on the computers in the network.
