Sorry to butt in. `du` starts in the current working directory, so if
you've just opened a terminal that'll only show you the sizes of files
in your home directory; the OP might find that `du -h /` includes
system directories. I also like `sudo du -hs /*` to get sizing for each
top-level folder, and you can work down from there with `sudo du -hs
/Applications/*` and so on.
