[QUOTE="dlcatftwin, post: 1873886, member: 183969"] Greetings all, I have a new-ish Mac Unit that basically launched my OS from High Sierra to Big Sur, so I missed whatever transitional information or organization that would have been in Mohave and Catalina. In Big Sur, I have 2 drives showing mounted on the desktop (Mac HD and Mac HD-Data), both representing the one physical drive that is installed in the unit. Can someone provide me an explanation of what is going on, and what this replication is supposed to achieve? I am wondering if it is a more modern, sophisticated expression of the Mac's "virtual disk" (I think the old OS's called it "RAM disc")? Many thanks for reading, DLC [/QUOTE]
