TreeMap Disk Visualization for Mac

Posted by Jeff November 14, 2006

On Windows, I like WinDirStat to visualize where the diskspace is going. Running it recently revealed 10gigs (!) of unlistened podcasts.

For Mac OSX, Disk Inventory X does the same thing.

This screencast compares and contrasts both programs.

    Filelight (http://www.methylblue.com/filelight/) on Linux performs much better disk space visualization IMO. Looks like someone’s cloning it for Mac.

    Thanks Rod- looks interesting. A Windows version of this is Scanner. Haven’t used it yet.
