Tried to use the UNC monitoring per https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/devices/device-datasources-instances/monitoring-web-pages-processes-services-and-unc-paths#unc ? It looks to have a BytesInDir datapoint you can set a threshold on. You can also use the admin share (like \\server\c$\) even if the folder is not normally shared out.

FYI. Keep in mind that all checks run directly from the Collector server. So having the code just check c:\myfolder\ directly, will check the folder on the collector itself only, even if you add the check to another device in LM. The custom DataSource will need to do things like remote powershell or UNC paths to check other computers using the system.sysname property or the like.
