DaisyDisk

The beloved sunburst map that made disk cleanup beautiful.

+ DaisyDisk: Сильные стороны

  • Gorgeous, instantly readable sunburst map with smooth drill-in
  • Fast scanning with a built-in collector for staged deletion
  • Long-running Mac citizen with polished onboarding

- DaisyDisk: Слабости

  • Paid license; no free or open-source tier
  • macOS only, so mixed-OS households need a second tool
  • Collector workflow is manual — no duplicate detection or AI assistance

Disk Inventory X

The classic treemap visualizer, revived for Apple Silicon Macs.

+ Disk Inventory X: Сильные стороны

  • Free and open source with decades of trust

  • Community revival builds run natively on Apple Silicon

- Disk Inventory X: Слабости

  • Interface shows its age despite the revival builds
  • No collector tray, previews, or modern sandbox handling
