Configure OS X to mount external drives at boot

By default, OS X only mounts external drives (USB, Firewire, Thunderbolt, etc.) when you log in, and unmounts them when you log out or reboot. To change this behavior, enable AutomountDisksWithoutUserLogin.

sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/autodiskmount AutomountDisksWithoutUserLogin -bool true

Installing OS X Server also enables this setting.

Alternatively, you can create the /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/autodiskmount.plist with the following content:

Rsync over SSH - (40MB/s over 1GB NICs)

The fastest remote directory rsync over ssh archival I can muster (40MB/s over 1gb NICs)

This creates an archive that does the following:

rsync (Everyone seems to like -z, but it is much slower for me)

  • a: archive mode - rescursive, preserves owner, preserves permissions, preserves modification times, preserves group, copies symlinks as symlinks, preserves device files.
  • H: preserves hard-links
  • A: preserves ACLs

TRIM Enabler for OS X Yosemite 10.10.3
#
# UPDATE for 10.10.4+: please consider this patch obsolete, as apple provides a tool called "trimforce" to enable trim support for 3rd party SSDs
# just run "sudo trimforce enable" to activate the trim support from now on!
#
# Original version by Grant Parnell is offline (http://digitaldj.net/2011/07/21/trim-enabler-for-lion/)
# Update July 2014: no longer offline, see https://digitaldj.net/blog/2011/11/17/trim-enabler-for-os-x-lion-mountain-lion-mavericks/

# Looks for "Apple" string in HD kext, changes it to a wildcard match for anything
