Go to the OWC Thunderbay for RAID-5 with SoftRAID and high-volume storage and fault tolerance. Remember also that hard drives slow down as they fill up. OWC does not sell the 12TB configuration, so if 12TB is desired, buy the empty enclosure and add the 12TB hard drive yourself. In addition, MPG recommends at least one always-attached Time Machine backup and one always-attached clone backup.Īn outstanding value and simple approach is a large hard drive (12/10/8/6TB) in the OWC Mercury Elite Pro enclosure. Hard drives offer excellent value on a per-gigabyte basis.Įvery user should have a bare minimum of two complete backups, with at least one of them stored well away from the computer. Keep this SSD separate from the laptop when traveling (in case of theft), and use it every day for a backup, particularly a clone backup.ĬLICK TO VIEW: Recommended storage for 2018 MacBook Pro Recommendations: hard drive and fault tolerance The ideal scenario for any Mac with an internal SSD is to add an external SSD of capacity equal to or larger than the internal SSD.

Think of the 2018 MacBook Pro has a 4 to 6 year investment-there is no reason that kind of lifespan should not be possible (be sure to buy AppleCare).

Mannerisms: I blink a lot because of contact lenses, particularly when dry or bright I cannot consciously control very well, especially if my eyes are tired from too little sleep. It’s hopeless without a soundproof studio or getting it done in the mountains where quiet, but I don’t own all the gear and can’t keep it out on loan any longer. Today I have a shredder going just as I wanted to redo it. Even so, squawking birds nearby and noisy kids 1/4 mile away and overhead airplanes make me less than happy with the sound track.

Sound track: I waited for the quietest part of the day. Makes me wonder if my concussion affected my recall vs speech-a little frustrating. There are a few word-errors which I correct a bit later (e.g., “hard drive” instead of “SSD”).
