Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Hello there.
Mojave doesn't stop external drives from spinning and powering down after eject. This will ware out drives faster, and cause potential data loss. I've experienced this on iMac 5k and also iMac Pro, so i'm thinking it's software.
Never had a problem with High Sierra.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance!
Spinning the disk up and down wears it out faster than leaving it running. Anyway, I believe this has been fixed in the 10.14.5 Mojave update as my external HDD now spins down and powers off again.

Hi Trevoz, thanks for your reply. Good to know, I will update to 10.14.5 Mojave and try again. Thanks!
