WD Elements 1 TB USB 3.0 High Capacity Portable Hard Drive for Windows: .uk: Computers & Accessories Seagate Backup Plus Slim 1TB USB 3.0 Portable 2.5 Inch External Hard Drive for PC and Mac - Blue: .uk: Computers & Accessories I've never used the Toshiba Brand for drives, need to check if it's compatible with a mac, I saw some problems with it on a forum so would not recommend. Hi mate, sorry been vegging with the fam. get a USB 3.0 if you can or thunderbolt (you'll be able to work with it if it's a fast connection, not only backup). There are a few methods of backing up but that's a different thread.īackup drives are cheap. This stems from the view that a hard drive needs space to work and it needs the temporary free space to work efficiently otherwise your system will slow down quite severely and your drive may strain which can result in the ultimate nightmare of it failing (happened to me, not nice !) If it's 256GB you need at least 25GB of free space at all times. if your HD is 512GB than you should always have 50GB of free space. It is important to try and leave a minimum of 10% free storage on your drive ie. 2nd external Backup drive comes into play when you need to erase material from the system drive, the reason for having a 2nd backup drive is that each file you have should always exists on minimum of two separate hard drives.īTW, This can work with any size system drive.
First external backup drive should be at least twice the size of your system.ģ. Try to make sure your MBP system drive is a 1TB SSD Drive.Ģ. If reads to me that you do not have a backup drive so unless you have one, It is the most crucial thing to do right now, before installing or erasing anything else.ġ. If I may, I'll share what I do after years of having to deal with huge amounts of information (This is just my opinion, others may have a different method) *Using my affiliate links when you make purchases helps the site/channel.I've just been through the same issue (just had to clean up some space for the exact same reason !!) What do you think? Are you trying the M1 platform yet or will you wait for more software to catch up? Do you even plan to try it at all? Let me know! For me it isn’t about benchmarks or anything like that, I just want to know what out of the stuff I use will actually work on the M1 platform currently.
Spectrasonics plugins seem to be working fine, I’m using the VST versions and I’m running them inside of Ableton Live 10. So for now I’m just testing various software/plugins that I use to see how it behaves. I tend to use my Mac Mini as a dedicated sound module and record audio from it into other devices. I’ve been testing out the M1 Mac Mini for a few weeks, mainly seeing how it would fit into my audio workflow.
