Hi, I have no such thing I thing as Storage or other, could it be the hidden Restore partition?
What OS version are you on? The new System Profiler (before getting to the window you show) looks like this:
For the OP:
I'm pretty sure it's anything that does not fall into the other categories, such as documents, files, etc. For instance, my "other" contains a lot of GB, but that's because I have a folder that contains absolutely everything (financial, letters, the list goes on) and it is over 10 GB in size - hence my guess.
did u upgrade it or did clean install. I did clean install and then I install some of the programs such as Libre office, little snitch, movist. The biggest program i installed is Libre office which is about 450mb.
but like i said i dont know what is taking 18gb.
I upgraded. And I have a lot of applications which take up a lot of room such as Final Cut Express (about 10 GB), Aperture, etc.
what falls under "other" category under storage?
