Disc access extremely slow on mac mini m2 pro
Saving files, using 2nd party filters, opening files from Bridge. All of these actions, and more, work extremely slow on a brand new mac mini m2 pro chipped machine. I am running the newest versions of Photoshop and have updated my mac IOS to the very latest version. I do save all my work to external hard drives and these are connected to thunderbolt 4 ports.
I have tried all the troubleshooting steps online, this forum, etc. All persmissions, driver updates, computer will not shut down hard drives, etc. have been made. I'm at a loss at what to try next. At this point I do a save, or save as, and it takes up to 2 minutes to do so. Running filters sometimes stalls for a minute or two to start up or complete an action.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
