This is an awesome Mac tutor how to choose format disk methods and using time machine in very detailing explanation and very easy to understanding. Thank you.
Question: I've got a brand new T7 2TB drive and I notice it's already formatted with ExFAT. What advantage is there in following your "erase" and reformatting operation? I can already read and write it. You are right, of all the choices, ExFAT is the best for me.
I followed all the instructions in the video but How do I put photos into my Samsung T7 ssd external hard drive using my MacBook? Can you please make a video?
Perfect video. You could have mentioned that if APFS is not showing, you can simply first set it to ExFat and then after that you are able to set it to APFS
Really informative, thank you. Clear and concise instructions. Just bought a T7 touch, do you need a password and fingerprint or can you just use your fingerprint? Thank you. Sorry to be a nuisance but once it is installed, can you just open and access using the fingerprint/password?
Thank you very much for this extra clear explanation. It works perfectly now with the APFS option because I only use my disk for BackUp. I've a question for you. I'm using ADOBE Lightroom and I've thousands of photos stored on another externat SSD ExFAT formated. Unfortunately this SSD ExFAT has automaticaly been positioned in the "Exclude from backup" list and impossible to remove it from this list. How can I backup my ExFAT SSD to my APFS disk dedicated for backup with Time Machine ? Thank you by advance from Paris - Cheers
i don't have apfs. I only have mac os (journaled), mac os extended (case sensitive, journaled), MS-DOT (FAT), exFAT. Which one should I use? I am using Ventura OS and using the SSD to store my plug-ins for Garageband.
Hello, thank you for the great video. Regarding the automated backup . Does this mean when I connect the SSD everytime , it will back up starting from it stopped the previous time ? I am talking especially about backing up photos . This mean when I connect the external drive, it will start from where it stopped last time ? Thanks
Is it okay to partition (say 50/50) a Samsung T7 and use 1/2 of the capacity for Time Machine Backups and the other 1/2 for storage of files you want to move off you mac's hard-drive to free up space?
I have Mac OS Monterey 12.7.1 and can't load my new Samsung T7 SSD I just bought. I had one I never used and tried to use it but it said I needed a pass word that I didn't have. I followed some instructions I found on another UA-cam page which said to go to Samsung page or call a number to customer service. I tried to call but they were closed so I followed some written instructions. I erase the old SSD installation and downloaded a newer up to date installation . That didn't work it went back to asking for a password so I just bought a new one. Now I try to install my new SSD and it says "A newer version of the software is currently installed. If you wish to continue, please delete the currently installed version and try again." I went in to delete any old Samsung Software I could find but found none in any folder. So now Im stuck. If anyone knows how to get out this so I can download my new Samsung SSD let me know. It would be so greatly appreciated.
Can’t you just plug and play with the Samsung T7? It comes automatically By default ExFat I have a new 2023 Air book mac. Then u don’t have to erase or reformat what came with it. Does ExFat make the hard drive smaller if ur using it for Mac and windows ? I ask cause why not use default ExFat in case u ever want to get something from windows . Why limit ur self to just the Mac format ?

Do I need to update or do anything if I only use the SSD on an iPhone 15? (I dont have computer)

Hey bro, if I used this first to store windows files, would it still load the files if I switch to a mac? Thanks in advance. 😊
Isn't there an setup icon inside the T7 and you run it ..isnt that what you use?

I bought the touch version and cannot install my fingerprint. Can you help ?
