MacOS automatically deletes old snapshots as disk space starts to get low, with a priority system: reference snapshots for external backups are retained as long as possible, because if they get deleted, the next backup may require a deep scan of the entire volume, resulting in a much slower backup. Other old snapshots are deleted first in the hope that will free up enough space.īecause snapshots get deleted automatically, the free space reported by Finder includes the total size of the snapshots, which are actually used space according to the file system. You can see the actual free space (not including the snapshots) by using the "df -h /" command in Terminal (-h gives human readable output rather than block counts note that it reports power-of-two mega/giga/terabytes whereas Finder uses power-of-ten to convert the df numbers to Finder equivalents, add 4% for megabytes, 7% for gigabytes or 10% for terabytes). System Information in Mojave and later reports free space in the same way as Finder. #CARDMINDER INSUFFICIENT DISK SPACE FREE#
