Q: QuestionI share a MacBook Air with my family. I want to update my macOS to Big Sur, but I don’t have the space to update it. Can I use this ssd to download the update, as well as applications like LogicPro and iMovie? Or is there another way it can help me?

Asked 5 years ago by Robert.

• A:Answer Į used it to update my Windows OS, previously I had tried to use many different external/plug&play numerous resources and even though it would download the updates, they would never install properly. When I attempted to use this hard drive the updates installed with no problem. Personally have not used the hard drive with any iOS systems but I know that the hard drive does support iOS and comes with an iOS installer pre-loaded. I feel confident in saying that it should be able to handle the updates in question. As far as applications it handled being the hard drive source for every Windows application, including the exe files and the program files after installation, that I used it for.

• A:Answer Yes, you might need to format it depending on what you are using it for and whether or not you plan on swapping between Linux, Windows and Mac OS devices. ExFat is a good choice if you want a drive that can be used by all 3.

Q: Questionwould this be a good choice for music production? I'm planning on storing mp3 and wav files on it. I will be storing some very valuable projects on here and I want to make sure they won't get lost or deleted over the years of being stored?

Asked 5 years ago by Carlos.

• A:Answer I bought two of these drives. One to use as a network drive and one to back up that drive. Am very satisfied with the drives. Very fast. It doesn't matter what storage media you use, if your information is that valuable and you want to store it for years, you should do some sort of back up.

Q: QuestionI have a computer with windows Vista that I want to back up files from and transfer to my windows 10 laptop and computer, will this SSD work for that?

Asked 5 years ago by Hikerdude.

• A:Answer Yes, it should. If you're on Vista SP1 or newer then that PC has built-in exFAT support. The exFAT file format used by default on this SSD was introduced in Vista Service Pack 1, there are exFAT drivers for XP, and Server 2003 if you need them. If you're on Vista then just upgrade to SP1, Vista before Sp1 was pretty bad so there's a many reasons why you should upgrade to SP1 if you haven't already.
