The International System of Units (SI) denotes (exa) as a multiplication by the sixth power of 1000 or 1018.
In other words, 1 exabyte (EB) = 1018bytes = 1,0006bytes = 1000000000000000000 bytes = 1,000 petabytes = 1 million terabytes = 1 billion gigabytes. To put this into better perspective, You could fit 11 million movies in 4K format would fit comfortably inside a 1 EB storage device.
To get to just a single EB would take 763 billion floppy disks or 1.5 billion CD-ROM discs, In the end data centers and large-scale computing environments that mainly use EB.
(Hope this satisfies anyones curiosity)

Question/Statement: I'm finding myself a bit confused here. You never actually explained, (or maybe I missed it) what the benefit is to having "separate rooms in the house" really is... Only that, you prefer it that way. Essentially, by that logic, isn't a folder the same exact thing as a partition then? I mean, why not just organized "Photos" and "Videos" into separate folders within the same "house" (SSD)? It keeps everything separated, and categorizes what area of the hard drive to go to, in order to access the data you need. The only benefit to making a partition in this video that I can surmise, is so that I can run different formatting languages on the same drive. Am I wrong here? Is there a greater purpose to having partitions? If one becomes corrupt, does that protect the others from becoming corrupt? Also, if I have multiple partitions using different languages, can I easily move files from one partition to the next without issue? Thanks for any and all clarification!
Hi @Aviator503! Let me clarify and provide a few examples.
Will the majority of users need to ever create a partition or volume. No. Most will ever need to or want to.
However here's some benefits and reasons I've created them along the side of just being a little more organized.
1. Let say I have a shared family computer with multiple local user accounts. I could make a volume that is shared among all users so it's really easy to share files/folders among each user. Now granted you can do this with the "Public" folder that is automatically created with each user account, but that gets quite cumbersome. Creating a volume, you can ignore the ownership on it and everyone has access to all content on there.
2. Let's say that you need to run Windows on your Mac. Creating a volume/partition on there would allow you to install a Windows OS on there. Without creating a partition/volume, this wouldn't be possible on the same drive...unless it's a virtual machine, and then that's a whole different topic.
3. Let's say that I'm an IT guru and I'm often testing multiple versions of Mac Operating Systems. I would be able to create several volumes/partitions on one external hard drive and install a different macOS on each partition/volume. This is extremely helpful for troubleshooting or testing different things.
I hope that helps! THANK YOU so much for watching! It is appreciated more than you know!

I cant tell you how much I love your attention to detail (makes my computing OCD happy), this has bee a great overview of partitions and volumes. I've been racking my brain on how to set up my "Travel" SSD for my Work/DJ laptop, and this has made me change my tune from 2 partitions to just running volumes on ATFS. I've been trying to decide the best way to have a "travel" backup on one section, and then my Music and DJ related files on another section to create some redundancy for worst case DJ issues.
Are their any disadvantages of assigning a volume to a Time Machine backup as opposed to leaving in the main area and just giving it a max size for backups? I'm going to start searching your other videos as well, but if you have a clip that specifically discusses this let me know where and I will jump on that!
I appreciate the kind words @michaeljohnson112!
As far as assigning a volume to a Time Machine backup...my personal preference/recommendation is to dedicate one drive to Time Machine only and nothing else. If you have it partitioned or have multiple volumes with other content on there and it's the backup, if something happens to the drive, there goes your backup and your files. It kinds defeats the purpose of a local backup.
Hope all is well with the DJing!

Quick question, i have an EXFAT external drive with some data in it, if i create a partition on it and set it to APFS could i then create volumes inside that partition, so that i could have volumes in an HDD that wasn't APFS initially, without formatting it?
Do one on RAID Utility 😎👍🏼

Hey Joel! This is a great video. I am transitioning from PC and this helps a lot. I have a question for you or any of your viewers with knowledge and experience with this. I went ahead and bought an external portable Samsung T7, 1TB for time machine backups and practice what I just learned from this video. I made a mistake and forgot to eject and disconnected the T7 from the port. Now it doesn’t work anymore (it doesn’t mount). Is it fixable or I just wasted $90 bucks?
What to use to format mac without affecting the data. Partition or volume. Thanks in advance!
I would be very afraid to do this but I am curious what happens if you have an external partitioned and you want to wipe only one of the partitions. As a nuance to that, if you have one partition with a small amount of data on it, can you create another partition by hitting that plus sign, .... will it leave the data on the original partition or wipe both to create the 2 separate partitions? OH Found it at around 7min!
Just curious!
love listening, thank you
What If I have some files in my external SSD? those will be deleted?. Thanks for the video explanation I really appreciate it!
Which one would be better to divide a drive for time machine? I hear partition, but would library with the quota work also?

Hi, I don't mean to ask a dumb question but I'm not clear on APFS drives with Mac OS.
I have a 6 TB External drive in APFS format. This is a mobile portable drive with a copy of my whole DJ library. I am in places where there is no Internet connectivity whatsoever. Do I absolutely have to have volumes? Can I just store my folders with Aiff Flac and MP3s inside them?
Thank you in advance
EB represents Exabyte which is 1M TB= 1 EB
Thanks for providing a great video. I'm curious though about reinstalling my Mac OS onto a hybrid drive? Should I see both drives? Or just one drive? I'm assuming that the SSD part of it should have the OS on it?
That is a fantastic question @Zumaray!
I do not have any Hybrid drives to test this on! Regardless, I would think if you make a volume, you should be able to install the macOS on it. I actually have just a regular SSD split into different volumes that I have a handful of older macOS installed on it for troubleshooting and fun.
Maybe someone else has played with hybrid drives? Comment if you have!

I have a 16TB drive set up in Raid 1. Would I need to partition the drive into 8TB per partition one being a copy of the original. One would be named #1 8TB in size and one Copy 8TB in size. Is this how I would set up these partitions?
My internal drive is running Mojave. I decided to install Monterey on an external SSD to see how many programs won't work. It worked ok, but when I boot back into Mojave I get a Incompatible Disk message saying the disk uses features not supported on this version of macOS. When I select startup disk I don't even see the external SSD as an option. The only way I can boot off that drive is holding down the option key on bootup. On Mojave I see Monterey/Update volumes but when I boot into Monterey I get Monterey/Data volumes. Both drives are formatted APFS. What happened to the good old days when it just worked?
Excellent video. How do I resize a partition? The ‘partition’ option in disk utility is greyed out
Hi @Silvermoon500!
That's one of the downfalls of partitions...once it's created, it's not flexible. It can't be changed. If you wanted it bigger or smaller, you need to delete the portion and create a new one. So just keep in mind if you need to do that, make sure you content is saved someplace else as everything would get deleted on that partition.

Question. I went to download an update for my Mac and I didn’t have enough space for it so I send it to my external hard drive. Now my hard drive has an “update volume” the drive was used for work and now it doesn’t show my files unless I’m in disk utility. Not shure what to do.
Why do I make volumes instead of just folders in one partition? Are Volumes separated from each other like partitions incase of corrupted file system?
Apologies if you mentioned this, but does creating partitions or volumes on an internal SSD on a Mac slow down the read/write speeds of the disk? … For context: I recently purchased a new M1 Pro with an internal 512GB drive and I want to designate around a 100GB for photo processing in Lightroom when I’m out and about rather than carrying an external disk.
HI @anthonyrego1351! I personally wouldn't worry about a slow down of the drive if you add a volume to it. Especially because it's an SSD on an M1 Pro, I think you'l be fine with photo editing.

Hi @brianlong5777!
You could partition a drive a drive that is used for Time Machine, but I would recommend to dedicate one drive as the Time Machine backup.
If the drive goes bad and you have files on the other partition, where would the backup be?

May I know if I could further adjust the quota size after creating the APFS volume?
Great question @TommyMa-Canton.
From my experience, once you create the volume and set the quota size, you are not able to go back and alter the size. I've only been able to remove the volume and create new one.

Thank you for your comment, actually I created an APFS volume on my external SSD for time machine backup. But unfortunately the backup size exceeds the quota and the backup fails. I exploring the way for extending the volume without data lost. Anyway, I've learned more about the partition vs volume on Mac and thank you for your sharing.
Why did you choose Mac OS extended over the APFS format?
Hi @Marcus Barnes!
I was probably just leaving it as Mac OS Extended for no particular reason.
If I were to buy a new drive I would format it as APFS.

So if you delete a volume is it the same as deleting a partition where everything on that volume is erased, or is it automatically just incorporated back into the other combined volume?
Great question @plugger410!
When a volume gets deleted, it will erase all data from that volume just like it does on a partition. So make sure to backup the files and move to another location prior!

I have a doubt! I just factory reset my MacBook, and I’m in the process of thinking if 150GB allocated for OS and 350GB allocated for my data is going to be enough? (This is all internal storage)
Hi @L3UZ3R.
So you want to partition/create a volume on your main internal drive? I would for sure go with a volume if it's a newer SSD internally. This way you can always allocate more to OS.

I have a new 8 gb external drive. Is it ok to partition it so that 5 gb is for Time Machine backup, and 3 gb is for other storage, ie pictures and videos?
Great question @Quince828!
Yes it is possible to partition an external drive to use one volume/partition for Time Machine and the another volume/partition for photos, videos and other files.
However in my personal opinion, I would not recommend this. The purpose of a backup is to have a separate location of your files incase a hard drive fails or something happens.
If you're Time Machine is on the same external drive as your photos and other files, it kinds defeats the purpose. What would happen if the drive got lost, stolen, broken? You would lose everything on there.
I always dedicate one external entirely for a Time Machine backup.
I hope that helps! THANK YOU so much for watching! It is appreciated more than you know!

@@Learnwithjoel hi. Thanks for replying. The following iCloud Photos issue has been a problem for months. I even read on other forums that this issue existed even when iOS 16 was in beta last year. The main issue: iCloud photo “library “. Months ago, I created a shared “library “. Uploaded a lot of photos. I sent 4 invites out but for some reason only 1 person got the invite and accepted it. Since this was still buggy, I decided to delete the library. That’s when the issues started. The library seemed to be removed from all my Apple devices at first. At this time, my iCloud Photos stopped syncing. I only see the message: “deleting shared library “. Again there is no shared library on my Apple Photos devices. The person that originally accepted the invitation now shows “removing from
Shared library “ on her devices. I went one step further and checked the iCloud Photos issue on the cloud (website). I only see folders called “personal library “ and “shared library “. However, the shared library is completely empty. All my personal iCloud Photos are still in the cloud but stopped syncing months ago the day I deleted the shared library. Apple has no clue. This case has been sent to higher levels and they have no answers for me. Many users on communities out there had similar issues too but no explanations or solutions. Thoughts? Also… this is about the new feature called shared library…. Not shared folders. In Case some are confused. Thanks. James
@@Learnwithjoel by the way .. adding to my previous comment. I have already tried turning off iCloud Photos and resetting stuff. Every time I try to enable my iCloud Photos again, it starts and gets stuck on deleting shared library…. Has to be a server side issue. Apple isn’t saying much of anything although I’m paying for storage that doesn’t work. Sucks
But how do I partition mac for 1. DATA and 2. APPLICATIONS?? I'm just a beginner..dpnyou have a vídeo on that? I had tonreboot my mac 😢
Hi @Julia-ir1yj!
So actually each Mac by default has two different volumes created:
Macintosh HD and Macintosh Data
Apple installs all the system files and Applications on the main Macintosh HD and then your home folder and all user files are designed to be stored on the Macintosh Data volume.
To the user however you only see one Macintosh HD within the Finder.
I would recommend to keep Applications in the Application folder where they belong and if needed, create a volume using Disk Utility to be used for other files/documents.

This is what I was hoping to find but sadly the distracting hissy background noise is distracting me, like trying to listen to someone talking when they pull off their headphones but let the music carry on playing. Maybe it's just my brain but it's annoying and I have to bail. Seems to be a typically American thing where content creators look for more bells & whistles to compress into their content. The fancy lighting, the pointless intro you have to sit through, constant reminders to subscribe, pointing to corners for links to other videos and of course the obligatory background music. It's just junk and packaging that needs to be removed before you get to what you want.
I appreciate your feedback @alanhopkins3675!
I've had heard lots of feedback from both sides of the spectrum, so I just do my best and try to create informative easy to understand content. Thanks for watching though!
