I recently moved lots of large files from my macbook to an external drive. AS I was doing this, I could see my system data was growing to over 500GB! I've done most of the cleaning up I can do up until this point. Cleared cache, look for large files, updated my OS, etc. Something is weird here. Please let me know what else I can do.
