Re:Using all-Apple Thunderbolt hardware to kill my MacBook by faebi on Saturday October 17, 2020 @04:57PM (#24813298)
My recent favorite mac kernel panic starts to happen when I connect my samsung t5 ssd to create a time machine backup. After some time macos hangs and then panics. I needed like 10 kernel panics to make it through the whole backup. Even better, I took my months of frustration to find out that my ssd was causing those panics. I mean who would suspect your backup device to be the root cause of kernel panics? It was connected to my screen so I completely forgot about it‘s existence.

Samsung does issue firmware upgrades for these drives, perhaps they fix this.
