Whenever i plug in my external HDDs to my mac, seagate backup plus/slim etc, that are formatted with exfat, i get the message that ufsd_NTFS.fs is not optimised for your Mac and needs to be updated. This software will not use with future versions and needs to be updated. What should I do?

Did you install the Paragon NTFS driver? If so you need to update to the latest version. It is not needed for exfat.

Start bugging the vendor now. Paragon is usually pretty on top of things with support for their bridge products.
I'm sure they're already working on an update, but most vendors won't release anything until after the release of the OS.

They may already have it:

I'm not seeing it in the Etrecheck's 32 bit apps section, but maybe that's because it is in the Kernel extension section. Not quite sure how to determine whether it was built 64.
