Also I like the fact that you can move duplicates to a specific folder rather than delete them, just in case.

The preview of the selected file at the bottom is a nice touch, plus you can see a larger preview if you want. Nice intuitive interface and easy to see what you're doing. Scanning is quite quick - took less than 30 seconds to scan a folder containing 43,500 photos (about 80Gb of data). Nice little app that does what it says on the can. So maybe get yourself TechTool or iDefrag if you have gigabytes of useless duplicates like me.

TechTool Pro 5 arranged that perfectly tough. The drive was spinning constantly and everything was dead slow. It would be nice to be able to see the date of the files on the main interface (with size, count and total) instead of having to select each file to see it.īeing able to slide the size, count and total all the way to the right to see really long file names would be my second request.īut be aware: it fragmented my hard drive severly after I deleted much of those duplicated files. You have Trash, Reveal in Finder and QuickLook buttons next to each file names, which is very handy. Lots of MP3s already in iTunes but still wandering around in various folders. Well, Decloner found for about 15GB of duplicates! Sometimes, I could have 5 times the same file in different project folders. I knew I had severals but nothing alarming. Wonderful little app! I downloaded Decloner for fun as it was 50% off on MUPromo to see how many duplicated files it could find on my hard drive. For your convenience Decloner includes Sparkle auto-update feature. Decloner can process large number of files on internal or external disk drives. You can define file name exclusion patterns, and ignore small files.

When determining which files to delete, you can see their information and use QuickLook to examine the contents just like you would do it in Finder. The unique virtual Decloner Trash acts as a staging area for the files you remove before they are actually deleted. All removed files are moved into the Trash so you can always restore them if you change your mind. Decloner never deletes anything permanently. Decloner then will show you the found duplicates and help get rid of them safely. You can scan multiple folders, iPhoto and Aperture libraries. Decloner has a simple straightforward user interface where you only need to choose where to scan, and Decloner will find duplicate files in those locations and all the subdirectories. It uses SHA-1 algorithm to reliably determine if files are identical. Like their toaster or refrigerator.Decloner helps you find and eliminate duplicate files on your Mac. People get them for a job, and as long as they work really don’t care about anything else.

Why? Because systems are so powerful, so fast, so capable, that even a decade old Mac can do what we need.Ĭomputers are commodity items now.

We’ll probably wait until one of them actually dies before we replace it. It’s a bit slower off the line, but it gets the job done. The two iMacs are booting off of USB-C drives because the internal ones started to get flaky. My household has a mix of Macs, 2013, 2015, and 2016. Nowadays, there’s better be a bloody good reason to upgrade, or a lot of people will just keep running what they have. I could count on a doubling of specs, processor speed, RAM, etc., every couple of years. Yes I have a Blue and White G3 PowerMac, but the G4 PM is out and it’s a screamer. My gosh the Lombard PowerBook put my old Wallstreet to shame.

I felt I had to update my system every couple of years. Having lived through the exciting years when there WAS a noticeable jump in performance for each model, 486, Pentium, Pentium 2, G3, G4, G5, I know how it was. Setting aside a few outliers, most of them perform about the same and most people just see them as a tool to get a job done, not a sign of status.Ĭomputers have followed the same arc. Cars were really hot, there were ads for this or that motor additive or product on TV, and everyone was into them, back in the 50’s and 60’s.
