I want to search the entire drive for files larger then 50 megs let say. I had this wrote down but dont use it enough to remember it

find / 5000k or something

What is it again?

You are referring to the size option.

Code:

find / -size +5000k

If you want to know more about the options of any command, take a look at the MAN page.

Code:

man command
