Track SQL server data files drive and backup drive growth

As a DBA I often need to watch SQL server disk space. I got alerts then I request more from network engineer. Sometimes the manager ask me to give a report of database growth like the increase rate by month of last 6 months.

Like the drive we have

E:\MSSQL\Data
F:\MSSQL\Log
G:\DBBackup


I know I can do something like to query backupset table to find out backup file growth.
and can query sys.masterfiles and then save into a table , collect by each month.
I don't have a script or process of doing this yet,

But would like to know from other DBA, what is your method of doing this? The simpler the better
Basically I want to give them a history of size growth in above 3 directories?

Any tools or scripts?

thanks
