o.k. o.k. I'm sure we have all experienced this issue... The dreaded multiple duplicate files that exist on our storage drives.

 

The issue is compounded when the content is the same but the file name is not... and further complicated when the file content is non text.

 

So I'd like to know what people have done to combat this issue and if there are any recommendations on how to dedupe a hard drive filled with multiple duplicates of images with different file names.
