Cheers, used that before (maybe even suggested here) but the fact is, nothing picked up why my HD was full. I wasnt able to download stuff, but when i did the Mav's upgrade, it empties half the HD

I have a camera strap by them, it's nearly a year old and it's wearing in/ageing nicely.

Need a simple way of clearing it. Might just do a fresh restart.
Stoney, I find Omnidisksweeper is a good app for finding what's taking up the most space on your HD.

Odd situation. Maybe worth doing Secure Empty Trash in future when ridding your computer of large quantities of data; this is taken from a MacRumors forum post:
"Empty Trash just tells the OS that these files can be written over at a later date. They aren't actually deleted (read overwritten) until the OS needs to put something there.
Secure Empty Trash actually deletes the file right there by overwriting it with 0's, I believe. And in Disk Utility you can overwrite it 1, 7, or 35 times I believe for security purposes."
Securely deleted files will be completely unrecoverable though, so use with caution.

Does anyone know of any particularly nice Macbook cases/sleeves? I was fortunate enough to receive a new 13" MBP for Christmas and intend on keeping it in better condition than my previous 15" one, which ended up with all sorts of scratches and dents, and lost all of its rubber feet. Would like a simple veg tanned leather sleeve, but couldn't find anything on Etsy or with a Google search.

Ok finally got my 480GB Crucial M500 going in my late 2011 17" macbook pro and it is amazing.
Bottom line is it will only work on the primary channel after weeks of trying to get it working on the perfectly functional 2nd SATA 3 channel.
The 128GB one is <£60 now on amazon so dirt cheap if you want a super fast boot / application drive.
