Hi kemraj

Anything refering to the disk subsystem on Linux is very different to Windoze.

Linux has been setup so that the different parts all have a different drive/partition.

What you are seeing there next to the tmp is the amount of space utilised/used. This is not specific to your website but to the server as a whole including ALL the other shared websites on it.

The tmp drive/partition is never set to be very large since it is only a place for temprary stuff that get removed. Anyone who saves stuff into a tmp folder deserves to lose everything they have there since it is not meant for general storage, but obly a place to use a temporary store. It should be cleaned up on a regular basis by a cron job.
Edit:
The only drive you need to be overly concerned with is the /home one. /var is generaly used by system variables, logs, system messaging, sceduled tasks, email and dns.
