So as we anticipate some holiday downtime, we're turning our attention to strategies for cleaning up our photo libraries. Note that we're taking the next episode off to celebrate Christmas, so our next scheduled episode is January 10, 2025. Happy holidays!

In his new update to Take Control of Your Digital Storage from Take Control Books, Jeff Carlson adds to our understanding of how our mass storage devices interact and perform with macOS Big Sur, and how that differs from previous versions of the system software. From Thunderbolt 4 and USB4 to managing APFS volumes and questions over the snapshots, a great deal has changed. Jeff helps us understand what changes we need to make. Show Notes: Links: Take Control Books Guests: Author and photographer Jeff Carlson (@jeffcarlson, jeff@necoffee.com) is a columnist for the Seattle Times, a contributing editor at TidBITS (tidbits.com), and writes for publications such as Macworld and Photographic Elements Techniques.
