I previously enabled trim support on my Thunderbolt drives, but that is no longer shown under System Informatiom. I even forced it using Sensei. I added its driver, Sensei shows it as enabled. But Ventura has no indication. Did Apple drop this? I am running on a Mac Studio.

Hello, i got in storage almost 60GB of Applications (About this mac -> storage). I checked in apps - they maybe have 20GB. Where and how can i find last 40gb to eventually remove it manually? It is awful comparing to windows, how it is created on macbooks :) I know there are tools, but one of...

Hello. I'd like to know if there's an alternative software (even paid) to the free Blackmagic Disk Speed test I can get for my mac. The reason I'd like a second test is that I sometimes experience weird behaviours with some SSDs, and this has been the same on different macs and different new...

I've tried every guide I could find, reddit, apple support. Nothing works. I've tried partitioning through the terminal, and disk utility. Both give the same error.

Hello I have an external 500G disk and there are two partitions inside currently, first one is APFS for storage document and second one is macOS(HFS+) for time machine backup. Now I'd like to move some space from the backup to document partition, however, I couldn't merge the third partition...

Dear all, I installed Catalina 10.15.4 hoping that's some problem found in 10.15.3 where solved. Unfortunately after that my Macpro refuse to go auto sleep and sometimes it woke up unexpected. So I used Time Machine to restore my Mojave installation. Now I have a problem: two disk showed on...

Hello all, I have a 4TB drive that I have been using for about one year and half. It worked fine until this morning, when I unplugged it after selecting Force Eject and plugged it in again, it shows "The dish you inserted was not readable by this computer". Both my macbook and iMac indicated...

Hi all, I have an iMac 14,1 with a 1TB HDD, formerly running Mojave. I was creating a partition for a Linux installation when Disk Utility crashed. I reopened it to find that the partition for Linux exists but is in APFS format, and my MacOS partition has been renamed to disk0s2 with 'unknown'...

Hey lads, I've been dual booting Linux for a while now, which I partitioned myself using diskutil commands. So the process for me to setup Linux took a while but everything worked out perfectly, util now. So I was interested in doing a fresh install of MacOS and dedicate the entire drive for...

Suddenly i am unable to login with my normal user id, i booted into recovery trying to repair the disk but the disk utility are not showing my container. I then managed to installed the OS again on another apfs volume, everything working great until i notice my memory pressure shooting up to...

After recently upgrading to High Sierra 10.13.6 (Late 2009 iMac), things don't look quite right in Disk Utility. When I open DU, I now only see one internal volume (where there used to be 2: I believe they were the root plus the formatted partition). The volume that appears now does not show an...

I have a mid 2012 macbook pro that had a corrupted hard drive. I'm trying to install a new hard drive. I got a 500GB 5400RPM drive. I erased it and formatted it as journaled using my current 2013 MBP. After plugging it into the 2012mbp, I try to install Mojave using an external booter. I begin...

Hi all, My Macbook Pro (13” Early 2015, running High Sierra 10.13.6)’s storage is currently taken up by system for almost all storage. I can’t seem to free space by deleting files as the system part only grows then. At the moment system takes up over 110gb of data. I’ve attached a picture of...

I had an old Macintosh Plus that croaked and died in the late 90s. I have my old thesis files on disks still. I want to pull the files off the disks before they deteriorate further - I would have done that years ago yet the tools in the late 90s aren’t what they are today. I gave in and am...

If disks keep refusing to eject, I've found that killing this process in Activity Monitor allows them to be ejected 99% of the time. Wasn't really sure where to post this, but I hope that helps somebody.
