Mac cannot automatically mount X9 Pro
The Crucial 4TB X9 Pro would not automatically mount when connected to my iMac M1 unless I unplugged it and then replugged it once the computer had fully booted. I tried formatting it multiple ways, but the problem persisted.
My second Crucial
I use this Crucial 4 TB SSD attached to my MacBook Pro laptop. This goes with me on all field photography trips. Modern photo processing software using artificial intelligence requires fast and large memory reserves. This Crucial hard drive is the best I've found yet.
Excellent device
I use crucial x9 pro with Macbook Pro everyday. I work lots of large raw images with Adobe Lightroom. Everything is on ssd of course to expand the laptop's storage.
Fast and Vey Compact External SSD
I've replaced a hard drive array with this 4Tb SSD, it has proven to be extremely fast in comparison to the array. It's very small, so very easy to attach and hide away. It doesn't need its own power supply, so it's much easier to connect.
Works for 1-2 Time Machine Back-ups then the drive fails
Never had any issues with my x6 or x8 drives. However I am now on my 3rd or 4th replacement x9 SSD. The latest replacement failed within 2 uses and has literally only sat on my desk. Disappointed.
A Great Little SSD
A great little SSD: tiny, functional and fast. Used as a time machine drive on a Mac. Totally hassle free.
Indeed, very good product
So far I love my Crucial X9 Pro (4tb) model. It is fast and in the future I will most definitely buy also an NVME from this company and probably I will upgrade my RAM in the PC. So all in all happy and I would recommend
