4.3. Fonksyonman Vantilatè Refwadisman an
The built-in cooling fan automatically activates to dissipate heat during intensive operations, helping to maintain stable performance and prevent thermal throttling. The fan operates quietly to minimize disturbance.
4.4. SSD Formatting and Speed Testing
For new SSDs, you may need to format the drive before use. The choice of file system (e.g., ExFAT, APFS) can impact performance and compatibility across different operating systems. For example, APFS generally offers faster speeds on Apple Silicon Macs compared to ExFAT, but ExFAT provides broader compatibility across Windows, macOS, and Linux systems.
