My customer has a standard disk configuration for their servers. C: is the system drive, 
is used for data files, E: for log files, and F: for tempdb.
is used for data files, E: for log files, and F: for tempdb.In SQL Monitor I have set up a disk space alert, with low, medium, and high alert levels at 85%, 90%, and 95% full. This works fine and gives me time to request additional disk space before I need to grow file and potentiallly run into issues. However, the levels are not really appropriate for the system (C:) drive and I would like to change the thresholds for these disks.
The alert configuration menu allows me to tweak the settings for all servers, for a server group, for a specific server, or for one specific disk within one specific server. However, I do not see a way to customize this setting for the C disk on all servers. So I am basically looking for a wild-card like option within the configuration so I can change the setting for "All servers \ * \ * \ C:".
Does such an option exist already? If yes, where can I find it? If no, would this be a possible future expansion?
Thanks in advance!

Hi @HugoKornelis,
I was pretty sure I had looked into something like this before. This post is your best bet to being able to do this, though it is from over 2 years ago (and even then I said use it with caution).
There is not currently a way to select all of the same drive for all machines, but you should log a Uservoice suggestion for this as it would be handy
Hope that helps!
Kind regards,

Thanks for the reply, Alex!I'll look into the code sample in the linked post when I'm in the office tomorrow.I have already followed your suggestion to post to Uservoice: https://sqlmonitor.uservoice.com/forums/91743-suggestions/suggestions/34256914-customize-disk-space-alert-for-c-drive-on-all-ser
