I run a server farm of Mac minis. For performance and SSD-longevity reasons, I have (≤ Mojave) partitioned the SSD in APFS and mounted the new partition with the noatime
option, and confine builds to that partition. Now that Catalina and beyond have the /System/Volumes/Data
partition as part of the OS, I am wondering if there is a way to enable the noatime
option for that partition without digging into /etc/fstab
, i.e. in an Apple-sanctioned way.
