    I'm not understanding this at all. I wish you were able to show an example with a drive that's not mounting. I see the container, and it is in APFS. I'm afraid to 'erasing' the container as I'm on holiday and want to wait until I get back to my iMac before totally screwing myself.

      I honestly don’t wish the same, I’m happy that all my disks work perfectly fine 👨🏼‍💻 this video just give potential solutions, but it most cases you have to reformat the whole disk anyway. But a lot of people unfortunately don’t understand the purpose of this video. I hope that everything will work well for you 👍

    Hi. I have an external Sabrent Rocket Pro USB-C 2tb that will not mount when plugged directly into my MacBook 15" 2018. But it will mount when using a simple unpowered usb-c to usb-a 4-port hub. I've tried multiple cables (including the original) that has worked in the past. When it's plugged in directly it has a constant light, it never shows in "Disk Utility", but using the hub it starts blinking as it should when it mounts. Hope you have a solution, I havent been able to find one via google :) Thanks Bjørn Sigvert

    • @OneByteAcademyOfficial
      @OneByteAcademyOfficial  Год назад

      Hello Bjørn thank you for reaching out, but I am afraid I will not have a solution for that. Every disk can behave differently. Have you tried to connect it directly on a different Mac? If the issue is connected to the cable and the connection inside the Mac body or is it just in your computer?

    Thanks for the video. I didn't understand how to fix the problem, erasing the data from the external hard drive.
    Format in exfat mode but it doesn't open on my mac, only on iPad.
    Do you know how to help?

    TLDR: drive formatted on windows might have block size unsupported on MacOS.

    • @OneByteAcademyOfficial
      @OneByteAcademyOfficial  Год назад

      Yes that is possible. Not everything is ideal on MacOS. The purpose of this video is to give you some chance to fix things, instead of reformatting it straight away. Which you might unfortunately end up doing anyway.

    • @SLfilmBerlin

      correct. windows formats in 1024k whereas mac (+linux) expects 128k. on windows, you can change that before formatting.

    Thank you. My Lacie drive was connected to my new M1 MBP and was not showing after I woke the computer from sleep. I didn't want to manually disconnect it as its HHD. I pulled dup disk utility and was able to click on the Lacie drive and mount it. Although I hope Apple fixes this so I don't have to do that every time.

      Well you probably didn’t understand the point of this video. If the disk doesn’t work on the Mac there is quite easy solution to that - format it! 👨🏼‍💻 purpose of this video is to give you chance of solving the issue differently, but if none of this works you will have to format it anyway.

      I decided to sell my mac never be back again. Since both my exFAT and NTFS harddisks are not working, tried Transfer data to my PC using ethernet cable. While copying, Got pink screen of death too. Wasted my time thats why I am bit grumpy and poor mood. Expensive device doesn't supposed to make peoples' life hard. Overhyping things are bad always.

      It's very tricky with this topic. I just tried to share few common fixes, but it's really individual to every disk.
