Create a list of your servers in a notepad file, each on a separate line and save it as list.txt
Create a batch file with the following script in it. (To create batch file open notepad and paste the below in to it, then Save As >> All Files and change the file extension to .bat)
powershell.exe -command "& 'C:\Scheduled Tasks\diskspace.ps1' 'C:\Scheduled Tasks\list.txt' "
Once this batch file is created you can schedule the task in Task Scheduler to run at your leisure.
