The individual folders are showing up as consuming far more space than the disk itself shows, not less. I think a symbolic link to another volume may have found its way into the folder somewhere. | |

| Oct 9, 2019 at 10:51 | comment | added | user440147 | Probably related to the massive number of file and folders? You have hundreds of thousands of files and folders in there. Why the size used on disk is smaller than the actual folders though, I have no idea. I thought this would be the other way around? | |
