[QUOTE="JoshJ, post: 1632931, member: 282115"] Hey Nick. My external drive had issues. I had to delete & reformat it. Before doing so I made a copy of that drive onto another drive. I then reformatted the original drive so that data is gone. For some reason when I checked the size of the copied data, it was significantly smaller than what I remembered the original data size to be. I just want to be able to check the original size of the folders I copied (but those folder are now gone). I was wondering whether the historic info of that drive might be stored anywhere on my mac for me to have a look at. (my past "Get Info" actions in the Console maybe - if there is such a thing??) many thanks [/QUOTE]
