This should only take a couple of minutes, the folder structure is not that complex.
cd //Folders that are links will have a -> \c\sharename at the end, you can ignore those. But look at the others.
ls -l
du /foldername -s -htells you how much space is taken up by that folder. Use "du . -s -h" if you are already in the folder.
