Mac Mini running Sonoma 14.6.1 keeps ejecting external hard drives randomly
My Mac Mini running Sonoma 14.6.1 keeps ejecting external hard drives randomly and improperly. It has happened with two identical Samsung T7 Shield SSD's, to the point where one is now corrupted and won’t mount. I thought it was a problem with the external drive, but I just purchased a SanDisk Extreme SSD and it’s doing the same thing to it. I am trying to restore files backed up online, but I can’t get through the 11-hour process without the Mac ejecting the drive midway through. I use one SSD external drive for my photo and music library, and the other for Time Machine, and this is such an issue that I can’t use either one. I have the OS set to never put disk to sleep, never turn on the screensaver, never do anything when the monitor is asleep/off (I’m turning them monitor off manually). What is the fix?
