[QUOTE="mikemyers, post: 1793770, member: 398683"] Absolutely, "occasional use". I used software like this ages ago, which made life so much easier for me than using "du". The "pie chart" made it so simple to find the most effective place to free up space. My MacBook Pro has 512 gigs, with 50 gigs free space. I'm pretty sure photographs occupy a huge part of that (for use with Lightroom), and ditto for video (which now will be with Final Cut Pro). What is probably a smart thing to do, is to move both to an external drive. Whether it's free or purchased doesn't matter to me. How quickly I can free up space is what counts most, and "Tree Size Professional" on Windows was the best utility I could find, for what I want to do. I will follow your advice suggested up above.
