I have transfered over music to my new macbook pro from my old one through target disk
the first couple of attempts did not work,but hard drive space was taken up
I deleted the folder I was copying to, and then proceeded to empty trash, but did not gain back my hard drive space
how do I track down my +40 gbs of hard drive space

“You may notice a difference in available space statistics between Disk Utility, Finder, and Get Info inspectors. This is expected and can be safely ignored. The Finder displays the available space on the disk without accounting for the local snapshots, because local snapshots will surrender their disk space if needed."
Linc do you recommend omni? I have read many of those type of programs are sketchy.
Also thank you for your knowledge

Yes, but you don't need it to answer your original question.
When I empty trash I do not gain disk space back
