Greetings.
I have a Mac Book Pro , with High Sierra and I keep getting into the same problem.
Since last year I've been having lots of problems with pendrives and external HDs. I "eject" them always to prevent them from corrupting and I'm careful with them not to stay near phones and stuff like that.
I use Avast, MacBooster6 and MalwareBites on my mac to check for virus and stuff like that. I had a problem with a malware that opened a lot of ads but its solved (by me, since when I left it at apple care they said it was fine, and it was not).
Still, my problem is:
- 1st my external HD, a WD formatted into FAT32 that previously worked just fine, got kinda of corrupted. I was unable to use it or even recognise it on my mac. On windows I worked but too slowly. Then it simply became unreadable.
- 2nd my pendrive Kingston 32gb. Same as before.
- And now another 32gb pendrive. This one still opens but it ejects itself (and not in the safe way, it says something like "you did not remove it safely"). And in Windows it still works but it takes like 1h to delete 190mb with 3.0 port and the pendrive is also 3.0. And it will probably stop working.
At Apple they say there's nothing wrong with my computer.
Any thoughts? Please help
Thanks in advance.
