Describe me as a minimalist, yet I dropped most of GUI solutions and by experience, I prefer to use the following strategy:
- fire up you command-line interface client (terminal, iterm, ...)
- identify the path of the drive that is full:
/,/Volumes/dataand change to this directory (that is;cd \/) - ask for the size in the hierarchy and sort it:
du -k |sort -n
It is a quite universal law that "small files are many, large files are a few, but these are very large" - such that you may quickly find the culprit.
