NullDisk hợp nếu …
- Truly native: Swift and SwiftUI on macOS, not a cross-platform toolkit.
- A staged removal collector: queue suspects, review, then Trash everything together.
- Allocated-size measurement with hard-link dedup, so reclaimed space matches reality.

Câu hỏi thường gặp
What is the best alternative to SquirrelDisk for Mac?
For most Mac users it's NullDisk: native SwiftUI, a radial sunburst map, a staged removal collector, and zero data collection. SquirrelDisk users who want sunburst views and open source pricing will feel at home within minutes.
Is there a free alternative to SquirrelDisk?
Yes — GrandPerspective and Disk Inventory X are free and open source with genuine treemap analysis. They lack NullDisk's collector workflow and sunburst map, but they find the biggest hogs fast.
How do I switch from SquirrelDisk to NullDisk?
Note the largest folders SquirrelDisk flagged, then run the same scan in NullDisk and rebuild the cleanup in its removal collector. The full walkthrough is on our switching guide.
Tóm lại
SquirrelDisk is a fine free tool for sunburst fans on macOS + Windows + Linux. But if you want the whole job — see, stage, and safely remove — done natively on a modern Mac, NullDisk is the upgrade. Hướng dẫn chuyển đổi →
