Description

My problem is that I am running out of space on my MAC (I wish a 5 TB or 10 TB drive was an option for MacBook Pro) and need to implement some kind of HFS+ file or volume compression solution.

Afsctool AFSC (Apple File System Compression) tool is an utility that can be used to apply HFS+ compression to file (s), decompress HFS+ compressed file (s), or get information about existing HFS+ compressed file (s). Mac OS 10.6 or later is required. Latest version is 1.6.4 (build 34).
