Re: UNITED IoS app locks up after iOS update to 18.4

UNITED IoS app locks up after iOS update to 18.4

Re: Hard Drive Stops/Starts

Mac Mini M4 SSD upgrade - results
I recently wrote about the external drive spinning down and up constantly on my Mac Mini M4. I¡¯d mentioned that it was a 256 SSD and that I had ordered a replacement SSD. It came this week and I

Re: Hard Drive Stops/Starts
My external hard drive case is hooked directly to the Mac Mini M4 via USB-c on both ends. I wish the drives would just spin down and stay that way until I access files from one of them. ?However,

Re: Hard Drive Stops/Starts
Ah, the huge difference was that when mine stopped, I was not actively doing things. Only on rare occasions was I in the middle of something and the drive had to spin up. It didn¡¯t shut down in the

Re: Hard Drive Stops/Starts
It¡¯s was a huge annoyance for me. On my M1 Mac Studio it causes a noticeable pause in Finder response anytime an action triggers the HDD drives to spin up. 9 times out of 10, I don¡¯t want data

Re: Hard Drive Stops/Starts
Thanks Tod for reminding me. I use a Drobo, a proprietary RAID, purchased in June of 2009. When plugged directly into my Mac, it runs most of the time and the proprietary diagnostics are able to work.

Re: Upgrade OS from High Sierra on 2017 iMac
Everyone has different needs and preferences. I used to travel for work, and a MacBook Pro with the builtin trackpad was my preferred form. I have squeezed out about as much use as I can from a 2008
