  • How to prevent macOS Catalina 10.15.4 from hanging when copying large files

    I experienced this precise problem the moment I upgraded to the .4 release and tried copying a 1.5TB file from my Promise R8 to a Promise R6 RAID drive.  It was brutal and created a huge amount of headaches for me.

    I'm not sure what's been going on with Apple's MacOS updates lately.  Have they had an exodus of the good MacOS software engineers or are they using low-grade rookies working on crucial OS codes?  
    People have been saying things like that since the dawn of Apple time. Get a clue and peruse the Apple Discussion forums, tech blogs, and right here on AI. Every release of of every update is solemnly declared to be the absolute worst pos Apple has ever foisted upon the public. The post below yours sarcastically says to avoid this issue by using Mojave. Well, guess what, people are still ragging on Mojave as being a stinking pile of shit. Nothing unusual has been going on with updates lately. Bugs come and go. One is fixed and another one pops up because of the fix. Happens all the time. Finally, someone please present us with an example the perfect operating system that has no discernible issues or bugs. You can’t because nothing like that exists, or has existed... ever.

    And guess what? If you use your setup as your primary source of income then it’s on you to make sure an update doesn’t screw your workflow. So you applied the update without any testing of your RAID? You just assumed all would be well. I’m sorry but it’s hard to feel empathy for that.

    I'll bet the first thing you do when 10.15.5 comes out is test it first.
    This just isn't accurate. Read why Apple's most recent OS releases ARE so buggy compared to previous releases from an actual Apple engineer. It's getting worse.
