Hello,

are USB mount events recorded in a log? Checked /var/log/system.log but was unable to find USB related entries :(

Thank's for your help!

MacOS logs everything.

However, it’s not as easily found as in the past. Use the ‘log show’ terminal command.

Sorry can’t add any more at the moment but it will have what you’re looking for.
