Looking for a HDD tool that can perform deduplication and data compression

0

Hi experts and pros! And a happy new year 2011 to everyone!

I'm looking for a "private" tool that could deduplicate my external HDD. I'm sure I have tons of files double on my Disk drives, and I can't afford to do it per hand. Even better if it can be free, or afordable.

The HDD is file-level access from MAC OS.X and Windows 7 clients only.

Thanks in advance for your help.
