Before you start to free up drive space on Mac, there are two things to do: Check the used/available disk space - Click the Apple menu Select 'About This Mac' Click on the 'More Info' button Choose the 'Storage' tab to check the disk storage overview and capacity. Backup important or useful files - We cannot rule out the possibility that. These files often take up disk space for no good reason. Mac OS X tries to automatically remove temporary files, but a dedicated application will likely find more files to clean up. Cleaning temporary files won’t necessarily speed up your Mac, but it will free up some of that precious disk space.
