Use third-party tools such as DaisyDisk, OmniDiskSweeper or GrandPerspective to scan and visualize disk usage. Each method has its own advantages, the system tools are convenient and fast, Finder provides more accurate search options, and third-party software provides stronger analysis functions. Remember to clear the wastebasket after deleting it to avoid remaining space.
