GrandPerspective

Visualises disk usage

Visit website
GrandPerspective is a small utility application that graphically shows the disk usage within a file system. It can help you to manage your disk, as you can easily spot which files and folders take up the most space. Disk usage is visualised using tree maps. Each file is shown as a rectangle with an area proportional to the file's size. Files in the same folder appear together.

I am basically in love with this. I regularly get told that my startup disk is nearly full on my MacBook Pro, and always turn to Grand Perspective to see what I can clean up (yesterday it was a whopping 19 gig of cached files from the Twitter app). Not the newest or prettiest of apps, but definitely one of my favourites.

This is a lifesaver for freeing up space during upgrades

I still prefer DaisyDisk (http://www.daisydiskapp.com/) for this, but Grand Perspective is pretty neat!

Been using Disk Inventory X (http://www.derlien.com/) for years. Gets the work done.

Does everything you need it todo though. Gives you a representation of where your data is being stored. + you can "reveal in finder" to be able to manually delete files taking up space on ur hdd.

Pros:

Free

Cons:

Not a great UX
