Disk Inventory X
Disk Inventory X is a disk space visualizer for macOS that displays your drive contents as interactive treemaps, making it easy to identify large files and folders consuming disk space. It was a popular utility among Mac users for cleaning up storage, especially on older Macs with limited capacity. The classic version required manual tree-navigation of disk partitions and showed file size relationships visually. After years without updates from the original developer, the original Disk Inventory X now runs only under Rosetta 2 emulation on Apple Silicon Macs.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThe original Disk Inventory X has been discontinued by its developer and does not have a native Apple Silicon build. However, the open-source community has revived the project as a complete rewrite in modern Swift and SwiftUI, available at diskinv.github.io. This new version runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs and is fully compatible with modern macOS. Since the original app will stop running entirely when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), switching to the revived native version now is the straightforward path forward. The new build maintains the same treemap visualization philosophy but is faster, more efficient on M-series hardware, and built with current development practices. Download the native version from diskinv.github.io to replace your current Intel-only copy.
