Some background on why I’m posting: For many years, I’ve maintained an archival library of music on which I’ve been curating since about...

    Hi, I have a 2013 iMac. It's running on Mojave currently, I want to upgrade it to the OLDEST supported OS, which I believe is Big Sur. In Software preferences I clicked to upgrade to Catalina (which seemed sensible given past bugs of skipping past Catalina). The process completed, so I am now...

    External SSD slows to a stop; normal behavior?

    For 3 years I've used my Glyph AtomRAID SSD for music production with Ableton Live sample libraries and DAW files, but lately it's been locking up frequently. I did some troubleshooting with a friend's ssd to make sure it was the cable, my computer, or a bad port, but I'm almost certain it's...
