Hi,

I have a problem with my Big Sur - Data partition. I have 512GB Macbook Pro 2020 and recently I get notification that my disk is almost full. When I checked it in Disk Utility I noticed that my Big Sur Data APFS Volume have just 150GB. I also don't know why the name of Image Snapshot partition stayed as MacOS Catalina. Is there a way to change the size of my Big Sur - Data Volume or is it better to make a copy and reinstall everything from scratch ? You can find diskutil list below:

Code Block /dev/disk0 (internal, physical):   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
