I've just moved a number of large files that I do not use often from an active partition to a backup partition.
What is odd is that the access speed to the active partition has increased significantly. Since that should not be possible, that must have to do with the manner in which the active partition is accessed by the Android operating system. Some research required.

Which local file systems does macOS 26 support?
-
💾 Recovered my external drive using the legendary testdisk utility.
macOS wouldn’t mount it, diskutil was hanging, and Finder showed nothing. Turned out the partition table was marked as “deleted” after an improper eject.
TestDisk helped me reassign it as primary, and boom - data back, no loss.
🧠 Lesson: ExFAT is fragile. Always eject properly.

#SSD Question.
I use an external 2TB SSD for climate and weather data storage and analyses. Just citizen science, not professional.
The files I generate during analyses are mostly small and numerous.Today, I had the case that a for-loop for listing all *.csv in one folder created a list with 12 million rows. But the folder really only held 3500 files.
So I thought, maybe yesterday's analyses that quickly created and deleted and created thousands of files was too much for the SSD index and it created 12mio (not thousands, but 12 mio!)
Or it is the internal SSD and MacOS indexing process that created those 12million ghost files?
Grateful for tips and tricks!
I am in the process of restoring my macOS on the re-formatted internal drive, and also backing up the suspicious external SSD to then re-format it.
edit: this time round, I use HFS+ as SSD format.
