Prosoft ships Drive Genius 2.1

Prosoft Engineering has introduced Drive Genius 2.1 which offers an all-new DriveSlim feature.

"We're really excited about the new feature," said Greg Brewer, CEO of Prosoft Engineering. "It allows you to quickly scan your hard drives for files that you may want to delete, which will free up valuable hard drive space."


DriveSlim will search for all duplicate files, show you their location and let you delete the unnecessary duplicates, while making alias in their place.

It can also locate large files and delete them from your hard drive; it will select which languages you want your Mac to support, and delete the support files for those you don't need; can trim applications to only support the new Intel-based Macs and willback-up any files you have marked for deletion on order that you can save them, just in case.

"We are constantly improving and adding features to Drive Genius 2 for our users. From the free Leopard DVD update for all our users, to this new free feature, we are striving to create the best utility on the Mac platform," the company said.

rive Genius 2 is distributed in the UK by AM Micro and costs 59.95 excluding VAT.
