I started noticing the hard disk space on my MAC starting to mysteriously disappear. I partitioned a 320 gb hard drive to allow for an 80 gb drive for windows xp in parallels. I currently am only using about 5 gb of that 80 gb partition.
However, when I open "documents" in my macintosh HDD, I see a folder which says "parallels".... when I hit "get info" on that parallels folder, it says the size of that folder is 107 gigs. I am not sure what information is in there, but that 107 is the number that I am missing on my entire disk drive.
I am not sure if I have a setting wrong within parallels to archive or something, but I dont know what to do. I tried putting the windows hdd in the trash. obviously it didnt work as when i tried to start parallels it told me it couldnt start because it couldnt find the hdd. I took it back out of the trash and put it back into the documents folder.
Has anyone seen this, and does anyone have any ideas on trying to get my hard drive space back? thanks for any answers.
