Erased Hard Drive - Still have 300 GB in "Other"
Hi,
I wanted a clean install of Big Sur on my Air, as I was getting a lot of spinning discs. I did not have a lot of files on the computer, so I did not see this as a big job.
I erased my 1 TB Hard Drive, and Disk Utility showed that nearly 300 GB was occupying space in "other" even though I had just erased it.
Am I doing something wrong in erasing (I was following Apple's instructions). Is it something about "other"?
Thanks in advance for any advice on how to free up the whole drive.
Richard
