When I close the lid on my Mac Pro 2015, and I reopen when I want to start working again, my Mac,(Mac Pro 2015), often comes back with the message, external drive not ejected properly. This has only happened since I upgraded to Mojave. Any thoughts?
This is particularly as I use an internal Nifty drive.

Basically its any external drive, but in the Mac Pro 2015 there is an SDXC card slot, so I have a 256GB micro SD card inserted.
What I noticed last night is that although the Mac says the SD card is not ejected properly, it is in fact still connected. So I suspect the Mac is still remembering something from the previous iOS version (Big Sur).
Any thoughts?

Additionally, I tried another micro SD card and you were correct in assuming that the first card probably has an issue. So while it still works, I have copied all the data it contains to another device.
Thanks for your help in identifying the issue.

Oh eject the card, I think there's a problem with that port or card.
You have no external drive plugged in?
What all is plugged in to Mac Book Pro?
Many thanks. It resolved the issue.I removed the drive completely and inserted the micro SD again.
Thanks

Good work, great news my friend... btw, I find SD cards very unreliable for long term data storage.
