What is Disk Map for Mac

Disk Map makes it easy to visualize the files and folders that are cluttering up your storage drives. It enables you to quickly locate, delete or compress large files and folders on your hard drive and reclaim valuable space. The app quickly scans your drives to build a stunning treemap visual display of files and folders on your computer, allowing you to easily navigate through your file system and find out what is taking up the most space.

What's new in Disk Map

Version 2.6:

Added native support for M1

Disk Map took exactly 3 minutes to scan 423.8 GB.
DaisyDisk took 1 minute, 5 seconds in Administrator mode.

So DD is certainly much faster, however I find the Disk Map results much easier to read, although I find them somewhat disarranged. Half the width of my screen is taken up by a big empty box representing my Music folder, while many folders and files on the other side are so small their names either aren't shown or are truncated, despite the fact that many are over 400 MB, and some over 1 GB.

I realize the sizes are all relative, but if the Music folder was shown MUCH smaller, there would be MUCH more room for displaying the other folders/files and their names.

For me usability wins out over speed, so I prefer Disk Map.

Bought this along with Disk Doctor as part of the discounted promotion. Very handy to tracking down where the big files and folders are on your hard drive. I found an old video folder that I didnt need which was taking up 4gb.

Do the work on OS X three own root dirs which is (Swedish OS X 10.8.5) /Bibliotek /Program /System However, what everyone wants is not to map out these but OTHER directorys/hdds and the ability to map out the directory /Users (/Användare) is IMPOSSIBLE and just vomits out "No files found. Reduce the min size setting in preferences." which doesn't help changing.
