Intel iMAC format APFS on Ventura 13.6.3. 2T Seagate format Mac OS Ext. (Journaled) For Time Machine only. The Time Machine drive does dismount itself once in awhile, but usually it’s fine. 2T Seagate (format unknown right now) used for file storage. Since upgrading to Ventura, the 2nd drive...
And unless a platter-based hard drive (HDD) is used as a boot drive, it should be formatted for HFS+ (Mac OS extended with journaling enabled, GUID partition format). APFS can result in excessive fragmentation and "thrashing" on HDD's...
Read only NTFS from native Mac OS X [*]To Read/Write/Format NTFS from Mac OS X, here are some alternatives: For Mac OS X 10.4 or later (32 or 64-bit), install Paragon (approx $20) (Best Choice for Lion and later) For 32-bit Mac OS X, install NTFS-3G for Mac OS X (free) (does not work in 64-bit mode)
Convert APFS to Mac os extended on external SSD. Hi,I am wanting to create a startup disc on an external SSD with High Sierra on it, so that i can run apps that are not compatible with Catalina. I don't want to revert my main disc back to High Sierra as that would mean erasing after back up of the disc, I do not have Time Machine backups going ...
Hello all. I have an iMac (M1) and current HDDs purchased years ago are Mac OS extended. Just purchased a new HDD and wondering if i should stick with Mac OS extended or format new drive APFS. Drive will mostly store media and work with a Plex server. Thanks you!
Monterey (and every release since Mojave) physically cannot be installed onto a drive formatted as HFS+ (Mac OS Extended (Journaled)). APFS is a requirement. The benefits of APFS are that it can read/write several times faster than HFS+, as it has been solely optimised for SSD's. That's why performance is so bad on old mechanical spinning drives.
Yes, erased the top level (disk) as Extended Journaled. I have another Samsung 1TB SSD which I've encrypted with Mac OS Ext option successfully couple of years ago, so this seems new. Maybe its something to do with OSV as you've stated. Here's the link i referred that states Monterey 12 would show OS journaled with encryption option, but it ...
Extended was added in Mac OS 8.1 and includes many improvements, including more free space (the minimum file size has been made smaller, so less space is wasted with small files). You should use Extended, unless you need to use the HD with a pre-OS 8.1 machine.
"Copy this application to a writable Mac OS Extended formatted disk and reopen it to continue installation."
Journaled means the file activity is copied to a log before it is written to the disk. FAT, FAT32 and ExFat aren’t journaled (easier to lose data via unplugging too early/get data corruption in existing files - less overhead) but HFS+ APFS, NTFS on Windows and ext2/3/4 on Linux are all journaled.
