Hi, I dont know why, but the MBP shows only 35GB free.
While I dont have anything in my MBP.

When I dive into storage to see breakdown, it says SYSTEM 387GB. WTF!
What is that ?

How to get rid of this ?

Questions:

Do you use Time Machine?
Have you checked to see if your disk space is being "eaten up" by local backups or "snapshots"?
Have you considered removing them?

If you use TM, my advice is to STOP using it, in favor of a "cloned backup solution" created by either CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper.

My opinion only.
