    Since I've proceeded with an OpenCore-Patcher-based upgrade of my old MBP 2012 with Sonoma I'm experiencing frequent system lock-ups, forcing me to force shutdown (power > 10 seconds), almost on a daily basis.

    Encrypt external ssd on mac sonoma?

    I back up my data on Mac to external ssd manually once two weeks and for security reason, my goal is to encrypt the external ssd with a password, similar to BitLocker on Windows. When I access the content, the password is required. P.S. I don't like the Time Machine backup option. Thanks
