What is a storage management app? You should use Disk Utility to manage both internal and external drives.
Do not use third party apps that claim to manage, clean, boost performance, etc.
I agree with the comments posted here and would add that in my experience, using any storage management apps that came with external drives very often caused serious problems for some reason. Now before using a new external drive I reformat it using Disk utility and never have any problems.
Thats what I'm talking about. There is a build in app named "Storage management". Just use spotlight search. It work awesome, but only for OS drive. And I wonder is there is are opportunity to change OS drive to any other within this app. Cuz sorting all of the files by size, types is very helpful.
The Operating System, in Catalina is enough to manage External Drives and does be better than any Third Party Software which often time creates more problems than it is worth.
Thats a build in app that is very useful to manage files and free disk space.
Never used before?
