SFL Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 I read it this morning on the internet that, in High Sierra, Apple introduced a new file system called Apple File System (APFS). All my external portable drives (archives & backups) are formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Are they in danger of becoming not readable by this new file system?

sb photos Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 MDM is correct. There are only issues the other way around, like trying to read an APFS initialised disk with an older system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
