Free? -No: http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/purchase/09/purchase_mac.html - 29.99$.

If there is anything else? What do the search results say?

Btw, if you only have 8GB of data, you can buy yourself a bigger USB flash drive or a spindle with CDs or even DVDs.

Maybe you can, but discussion or mentioning of pirating software is no allowed here. https://macrumors.zendesk.com/hc/en-us#Things_Not_to_Do
