Another tack is to copy all the files and sort them into folders in the
Finder using some scheme that makes sense, for example by year. Then
buy DropStuff or StuffIt Deluxe and stuff the folders. You'd save
enough space that you could ignore duplicates, or only toss ones that
jump out at you when you're sorting. This is how I keep old work
archives.
I tried Spring Cleaning and thought it was way too dangerous to fool
with.
