Bottom Line
Mac Os 10.12 Sierra Download
Why I show you two method of finding duplicate files on Mac with two different apps? Well, MacPaw Gemini 2 is really a professional duplicates file finder, and it works quite well on finding duplicates files especially similar photos and videos. I suppose just bcz this powerful features, the speed of scanning a 200 GB data is a little longer. And the Cisdem DuplicateFinder works on only exact duplicate file by same contents (or file name), so the speed of scanning may be faster. If you have a large amount of duplicates files including similar photos or videos, you could choose Gemini 2 to help you solve the duplicates intertwining. But if you only have little duplicates files on your hard drive, you could use Cisdem DuplicateFinder to quick scan and clean up.
