Hi Susan Apologies, I should have said - it’s only a 256 gb - I have got a 1TB SSD which I’ve not put in as yet, as still trying to decide on whether to rebuild the MacPro - waiting for Apple to give specs on their new MacPro later on in the year. However, I suspect one will be limited in upgrading the new model as like the previous recent models. I use various applications, but when I get low, I close the apps I’m not using, but still doesn’t make a difference.
This didn’t happen previously, it is only really in the last year or so.
