What’s the proper way of ejecting the sd card when coming out of controller mode? In controller mode I don’t see the eject icon.

Good price but bad SSD. They are blowing them out because they are unreliable. I would not trust saving something as important as music projects to those. Get the most reliable drive you can and make sure to back it up.

Thanks for the advice. The price was too cheap for me to pass on. I’ll make sure To back up my most important projects, and if the SSD fails one day I will appreciate the advice.

One of my weed moments. Your Bible clearly states how to do this.

My son got me a 1 terabyte ssd from Samsung for $100. How many gigs in a terabyte. I guess I could google that right quick.
