As far as I understand SNMP it is quite easy to tell: If there is an 
object for that in the MIB of the SNMP client on this windows machine, 
then it should be fairly easy to rewrite check_snmp_storage.pl (or write 
your own script) to query that object.
So have a look at the MIB of your SNMP service on the winX box.
