Hey guys,
I have a little problem.
I have a 120GB HDD and on it is my Mac OSX86 and some apps and three games I think, all in all 32GB.
I'd marked all the folders on my HDD and there is 40 GB used.
I can't imagine that the system is using 80GB, because I have only 500 MB free space.
I'd restarted my computer several times, deleted some temp files....but now im stuck..

Anyone knows where my storage is ?

thank you!!
I've found the problem, or I have nearly found the problem. The System is writing some very big .asl Files and Logs, the systemlog is repeating a message :

Aug 31 14:27:50: --- last message repeated 31 times ---
Aug 31 14:27:50 noname kernel[0]: FEDE - AppleNForceATA: createChannelCommands( 0x3aee000)
Aug 31 14:27:50 noname kernel[0]: FEDE Casteo a IOAABUSCommand64

Aug 31 14:27:50 noname kernel[0]: FEDE entro al ciclo
Aug 31 14:27:50 noname kernel[0]: FEDE genero 32IOVMSegments

This is one piece of it.

I will now try to solve the problem and again, thanks for the app, it helped me alot.
