You seem to be dealing with a significant amount of unallocated space on your internal disk, totaling 370.08GB. This can occur due to various factors, ranging from incomplete partitioning to leftover space after resizing volumes.
Below are some steps to help you reclaim that space. First, ensure your data is backed up before proceeding.
Use Time Machine or another backup solution to secure your files, as disk operations can lead to data loss if something goes wrong. Next, open the Terminal application.
You can find this in Applications under Utilities. To see your current disk structure and partitions, use the command:
diskutil list
You already have this information, which shows your disk configuration.
Since there’s unallocated space, you’ll want to merge that back into your existing APFS container. To do this, execute the following command in Terminal:
diskutil apfs resizeContainer disk0s2 0
This command attempts to resize the APFS container to fill all available space.
The “0” indicates that you want to maximize the container to use the full capacity of the disk. After running the command, check if the space has been reclaimed by using:
diskutil list
The output should show the APFS container now utilizing the additional 370.08GB of space.
If this method doesn’t work or if you encounter error messages, you may need to consider using Disk Utility in Recovery Mode or third-party partition management tools. Finally, regularly maintaining your disk with the occasional check and cleanup can prevent similar issues from arising in the future.
