Hi! I just recently transferred 200GB of important data off of my Mac onto a SanDisk Extreme SSD. I browsed this page and a few others and would just like to know the basics of making sure my files do not get corrupted or disappear. I am veryyyyyy unknowledgeable when it comes to this stuff, so if possible, please explain in very basic terms lol.

What I could understand from a few threads was A. That you should power on the SSD frequently to keep it active and B. that you should read the data frequently... but I don't know what exactly that means lol.

Is there anything else I can do to ensure these files stay on this SSD? I'm scared to delete them from my Mac LMAO.
