Install Mac Os From Usb Flash Drive

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got the new Samsung T9 Portable 1TB SSD drive. The drive is unexpectedly small and quite attractive with a rubber-like covering. I’m very pleased that the drive comes with both USB-A and USB-C cords for attaching to most any type of device. The drive is connected via USB-C to my Mac Studio computer. The Mac OS instantly recognized the drive and allowed me to format it for my Mac (Mac OS Extended Journaled). I tested the speed with a disk speed test utility, which reported 829.8 MB/s (write) and 890.8 MB/s (read). The speed is approximately 11X faster than my other USB external drives. I am struggling with the included Samsung PSSD utility. The app always tells me that the drive is not connected although my Mac sees it and allows me to use it. I’ve tried all of the Samsung troubleshooting suggestions for Mac OS, but it still remains unusable. That really makes no difference for me to use it. Nevertheless, I like everything about the Samsung T9 Portable 1TB SSD drive. It’s a great addition to my system.

A great little hard drive. It comes with two cables for the different USB ports, which is a plus. It comes formatted in Mac OS Extended, which, while making it Mac specific, makes it easy to partition. I partitioned mine to use 1/4 of the space as a Time Machine, with the rest for file storage.

Needed an extra internal drive to install new Mac OS X Elcapitan. This did the trick. B & H provided Great service , delivered on time, and a quick-easy install. Thank you.

Good drive, but if you are a Mac user, be sure to reformat the Drive to MAC OS Journaled. It used to be the case that ExFat was okay if you needed to share a drive between a Mac and a PC user. But with the newer OS updates, my ExFat drives no longer read the data in Final Cut Pro X. What a hassle! I have to buy another one of these just to use it as a transfer tool so I can re-format my ExFat drives. That takes a lot of time and money. Hope that helps someone out there NOT to make the mistake I made.

windows 7 and mac os x , just install driver and you are good to go.

Good to have these around. Needed this for some of my old hardware that still used USB-A. Worker for both operating OS(Windows/Mac)

Running this on Mac OS Catalina. Needed more backup space. Easy to install.

Update can be done without old CPU with USB flash drive only.

I'm new towards using a Wacom Pen Display, it’s a great tablet relating to how well it is made, the resolution of the screen and how well it behaves when using it to create 3D models and sketches in Autodesk Fusion and in Shapr3D in this short time of use, it really is a game changer that does complement its use in these software’s.  Also, since I like to draw a lot, I am starting to get acquainted with this device and still have a long road ahead to get the best use and advantage in creating my drawings thru this pen display.  The only problem I suffered was at the beginning trying to get it setup initially with my Apple Mac Studio M1 thru the USB-C cable connection; it is recognized in Mac OS Ventura with the Wacom Center app when installed but for some reason nothing can’t be displayed or mirrored to the device. I tried every possible troubleshooting solution, but nothing seems to work which is frustrating and the only way I was able to get it to work correctly as intended was thru the HDMI & USB-A connection setup.  I called Wacom support explaining about the issue and after going over their troubleshooting process with me their best recommendation was in doing the upgrade to the Mac OS Sonoma version which should hopefully correct the issue; that upgrade should occur during the weekend when time is feasible after securing all important information and projects in progress.  However, I’ll still will give it a 5-star since I’m satisfied with the way it is working thru the HDMI & USB-A connection, it really is helping me in my 3D creations in these initial five days of use in which I’m totally astonish as a beginner in using this device.

Easily reformatted for use with Mac OS X. Compact size and one USB cable for power and data makes it easily portable. Good capacity for price (as of this writing); but not designed to be a speed demon. Runs quiet and cool.
