Is this a serious enough issue to warrant extending my apple care?

[Guest /u/victornielsendane]

I only have 3 days left to spend 110 euros to get another year of Applecare for my MacBook Pro 2021.

 

I've been having a problem. Many of my apps would crash randomly. Most annoyingly my OneDrive, which made a lot of other things stop functioning. My disk was also almost full.

 

I went through a few different processes.

 

1. I reduced my storage space: deleted caches, logs, downloads folder, trash. Ended up saving 80 GB of space. But still have a "systems data" of 150 GB and I don't know how to reduce that.
   
2. I ran first aid in disk utility in recovering mode on my Macintosh HD - Data volume and it gave me a lot of errors (something like:[iCODE]error: doc-id tree: record exists for doc-id 13603, file-id 108513837 but no inode references this doc-it[/iCODE]) and it failed with error[iCODE]69845[/iCODE]. Then I made a back up and tried again with same error. After a while I learned I had to run it on all the disk volumes as well as the actual disk, and it worked. It ended successfully with the first aid. However, in the log it still gives the[iCODE]error: doc-id tree: record exists for doc-id 13603, file-id 108513837 but no inode references this doc-id[/iCODE]. So I'm a bit uncertain whether the issue is fully resolved.
   

 

I no longer have programmes crashing, but the errors are still on my mind and I still can't figure out what the 150 GB of system data is. Do I need to worry? Should I extend applecare? What would you do on a small budget, where 110 euros is a lot?
