    Hi. Great video, I am in the market for the Mac Air m2 & was wondering what bearing formatting the ssd to APFS has on transferring files directly from other devices (eg an Android phone or iphone, as I have both and not sure which I'll continue with going foreward)?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    • @RawansReviews
      @RawansReviews  Před 10 měsíci

      Hi, as long as you're plugging your SSD into a Mac, you can read/write to it if it's APFS. Your mac should also be able to read files from your Android/iOS device that's connected to it. So you should be fine transferring data to the SSD. The only warning is, if you might use the SSD on a Windows machine, then avoid APFS and format as exFAT as that's compatible with both Windows and MacOS

The speed obviously does not compare to today's ssd but the life of this HDD surely far exceeds that of these ssd ! In particular, I have on this HDD a lot of great high-definition movies (copy of blu-ray without lossless) on it that have file sizes of 4, 5, 6, 7 or sometimes 10 gigs on it, they are read without any problem from a player like VLC in my MacBook Air m2 and their primer is very fast.

      Generally SSDs last longer than HDDs, they're more rugged, less sensitive to drops and don't have any moving mechanical parts that may fail. Lifespan might be affected by number of times you right data on it. For backups, you're not constantly writing so you should be fine.

      Of course. But make sure what file system format you use. If you only want to “read” files copied from your PC, on a Mac, then NTFS file format can be read by Macs. But Macs can’t write anything on NTFS (not without 3rd party software at least). If you want to be able to read and write interchangeably on both Mac and PC, then best to use exFAT as both Macs and PCs can read and write to exFAT discs.

      @RawansReviews  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Would you be moving that hard disk around, or could it be static, somewhere in an office or desk? If you're looking for backups, then speed is less important, you're better off getting more storage capacity than speed, for each dollar you put in. That's why I wouldn't recommend SSDs as, for the same price, you can get 2-3 times the storage capacity of an SSD if you get an external hard drive. SSDs are more durable though, and can take a drop and some light water splashes much more than external hard disks. If you envision you might be in such cases, then you might need to bite the bullet and get an SSD. But if you don't feel you're likely to be in such situations, but still would like portability, then a 2.5" external hard drive will give you much more storage for the same dollar value. But if you don't even need portability, then look into 3.5" externals (desktop external). This is larger and requires a power source, but likely to be the best value for money in terms of dollars/terabyte of storage. Hope this helps.

      Go to Disc Utility, select SanDisk Extreme and click on Erase, click Format and chose a file system. Pick exFAT if you’ll be using it on a Windows too, else pick Mac OS Extended or APFS.

      If you plan on only using it on Windows, then I'd go with NTFS. If you might also use it on Mac, then exFAT as that's the format both Windows and Mac can read and write to.

    Citing Apple's pricing structures is neither useful or meaningful in establishing the relative cost of SSD technology, because a disproportionately large chunk of Apple upgrade pricing is taken as pure profit.

    • @RawansReviews
      @RawansReviews  Před 9 měsíci

      You’re absolutely right. But citing them wasn’t to establish the relative cost of SSD, but rather to illustrate that getting a decent amount of storage built-in is very expensive-so going lower there and getting an external SSD might be a option.

      After unboxing i first tried with exFAT, then formatted the drive to APFS.
      I tested ot quite a bit and found out that After been plugged in for a 20 minute or so, the speeds do get better to about 800/600 or so. Nevertheless, i think they saved money somewhere on this shield version and especially on this 4tb version.
