Discovered two, disk space-saving Mac apps
UPDATE
Singular was a bust for me. It took hours to see any progress that it might be making, causing me to quit the program and trash it. That’s what I get for recommending something I didn’t try out first. So yeah…blah!
Disk Inventory X
Have you gotten to that ever annoying point on your Mac where you’ve just run out space on your hard drive and you’re thinking, “What is taking up so much room?” Well, that’s where I was until I remembered a handy application I used about a year or so ago called Disk Inventory X. It isn’t new or anything, but I hope blogging about it helps someone because I love it! 
This Mac application gives graphically color-coded blocks whose sizes are relative to each file’s size. I just freed up approximately 25 gigabytes on my MacBook Pro and thought I’d share this valuable info for anyone wanting to free their Mac from the tyranny of unnecessary data.
Singular
Furthermore, I also did a little Googling for an application that locates duplicate files, and I discovered Singular. It spots duplicate files, saves one copy, then deletes the duplicates. I currently don’t have a testimonial to give about it as it’s still working on my Mac. But when it’s all done I’ll update this post on it’s effectiveness. In the meantime, here is a screen-shot of it’s features.
So be sure to click the links for these two amazing apps and let me know how it worked for you. Also, if you know of any similar applications for Mac please share in the comments thread. Thanks in advance!
