Re: external session drive for mac/ what format do you prefer?
In addition to Sardi's note, there are *still* no good directory repair/recovery utilities for APFS drives (Diskwarrior has said they have only just recently received proper documentation of the file system from Apple) - until such a utility exists (and no, Disk Utility's repair function is not sufficient) I'm avoiding APFS. best, rich

That’s a VERY good point. I totally forgot that DW isn’t currently supporting APFS formatted drives. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Good choice. For all the reasons mentioned above HFS+ seems the safer bet for the time being on external drives. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: external session drive for mac/ what format do you prefer?
I called their tech support as I was not able to get it to work at all(this was maybe 6 months ago). That's when they told me the current(then) version(which I paid for) was not compatible with Windows 10. Guess they got it together

Re: external session drive for mac/ what format do you prefer?
I had to replace the guts of my workstation last summer and do a complete install from scratch, and that must have been when I upgraded to MacDrive 10. Guess that was just after they got it together.
