[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1433365, member: 71075"] This is an excellent point - "moving" files to external storage doesn't actually move it. Instead, OS X copies files. You'll know if this is the case if you see a green circle with a plus sign when you go to move the files. If you're not gaining any space when you transfer the files, you're likely just copying them which leaves the original intact. [/QUOTE]
