Hi,
When I press sleep or I close the lid of my MacBook Pro 16 M1 Pro (MacOS Ventura), suddenly the MacBook wake up and doesn’t want to go to sleep.
I noticed also another problem: when I unmount the T2 thunderbolt 3 device, my Mac freezes and restart itself, telling me that there was a problem 😩 I’m very disappointed

What can I do?

Today I want to try also the clamshell function of my Mac, because I really need to use an external monitor with the MacBook display closed down, and I want to see if this Terramaster permit this feature without problems.

Thanks in advance
Marco M.

Have you got put HDD to sleep enabled?

For macOS, go to "System Preferences" > "Battery (Power Adapters/Energy Saver)". Then uncheck "Put hard disks to sleep when possible " and set "Turn display off after this time period" to "Never".
