With 64 GB of available space is it time for a new computer? The MacAir 2013 only has a total of 121 GB available space on the hard drive. Since upgrading to Catalina from Mojave, the new OS took up more space than just replacing Mojave, and seems to use sometimes 1GB of space a day without my doing anything on the computer; with 64 GB remaining that only would mean obviously too little remaining in just two months. Is it time for me to purchase a new computer? Do I need to be aware of how much available space is needed if Migration Assistant or other means of moving data from this 2013 to a new (LARGER CAPACITY) Mac?
