APFS still drags its heels with a spinning disk drive unfortunately. If it’s a 21.5” iMac it’ll be particularly slow as the 2.5” spinning disk drives inside them are made for laptops. With the unpatched vulnerabilities in Mojave I’d recommend upgrading both hardware and software if you can.

I'm assuming it's going to also struggle with Monterey, or has it been improved for Fusion drive devices (I realise it'd prefer SSD). I don't need fancy performance, but don't want it to grind to painfully slow either. In future, I'll consider external SSD as boot drive, but for now it's mainly a mail / safari workhorse for the children, so if it can handle Monterey, great, else we'll stay in the Mojave desert ;) Adam -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Sussex Mac User Group" group.
