Although not 'gadget' style, you could try this illustro style skin: https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?p=143116#p143116

There is no easy way. You’ll have to manually remove those from the code.

Right-click on disks meter and click "edit skin". It will open the correct file in whatever text editor you have set as default. Scroll down until you find the upload/download rate meters, and simply delete them.

Ok found these instead of up/down:

MeasureName=MeasureDiskReadWriteL
MeasureName2=MeasureDiskReadWriteK
MeasureName3=MeasureDiskReadWriteJ
MeasureName4=MeasureDiskReadWriteI
MeasureName5=MeasureDiskReadWriteH
MeasureName6=MeasureDiskReadWriteG
MeasureName7=MeasureDiskReadWriteF
MeasureName8=MeasureDiskReadWriteE
MeasureName9=MeasureDiskReadWriteD
MeasureName10=MeasureDiskReadWriteC
LineCount=10
LineColor=#colorDiskL#
LineColor2=#colorDiskK#
LineColor3=#colorDiskJ#
LineColor4=#colorDiskI#
LineColor5=#colorDiskH#
LineColor6=#colorDiskG#
LineColor7=#colorDiskF#
LineColor8=#colorDiskE#
LineColor9=#colorDiskD#

Ah, I forgot that I have the meters separated out into another file. Go to your Rainmeter skins folder, and navigate to illustro Gadgets\Drives Meter\DiskMeters.inc. The read/write rate meters (not download/upload, that's for network meter) will be in there.

Now they're gone but the space is still there. Now if I won't be too much of a headache for you, how can I remove the spaces too. my goal is to make the skin a little more compact.

Thanks in advance

Tried to play with all the files and tried to guess the variable or something effects the resizing but couldn't find. I know it is an obsolete project but your drives meter is the most readable illustro disk monitor I want to use. Which line or lines I have to edit to resize?

The background height variable is a complicated equation that you'll need to change. Go to illustro Gadgets\@Resources\Variables\DrivesMeterVariables.inc and you'll find it. You'll want to specifically look at the diskChunkY variable, for that is what defines how tall each disk section is.

Play with those until you get the results you want. I'm not at my PC so I can't test, but I think if you change diskChunkY to ((#rowYOffset# * 2) + 1), it should do the trick.
